VISA
TAK! Today I—Finally!—sent in my visa application. Please pray for its safe delivery and quick approval. It takes about 90 days for it to be approved, but hopefully by some miracle it will return before then. In difficult circumstances, it would take up to 120 days, so please pray for it to go through before that time.
PRAYER
I’d like prayer for preparation. I’d like to be diligent in my studies, whether of the Bible or the Czech language, or even for being yearbook advisor—and especially for the students I’ll be mentoring! I’ll be wearing quite a few hats this next year, and I’d like to be prepared insofar as I’d like to have deep and unfaltering trust in God and His sovereignty. And of course, acquiring some of the knowledge and skills that I’m lacking now. “God equips the called . . .”
FUNDS
I’ve had some generous donors! For those of you who have given, THANK you so very much—I’ve been blessed by it. For those of you who are planning on giving, every day counts! The Christian International School of Prague (CISP) would like me to have 80% of my support raised before I buy my plane ticket, and 100% of my funds raised before I head overseas. This does not leave me much time. I am looking to raise between $1,200 and $1,500 for each month, so that’s between $14,400—$18,000 for the first year. Right now, I’ve had $4,365 given or pledged to me thus far. If you know that you would like to give, doing so by June 30th would bless me immensely. Although one-time and occasional gifts are always welcome, I am praying for those people who will regularly and generously support me on a monthly, quarterly, or annual basis. Thank you for your sacrificial giving!
