Update and Thank You!




We want to give you a couple of important updates about our upcoming mission to the orphanage and school in Liberia.

First, the Thank You! Nearly $1000 has already been given. Tim and I are excited, grateful, and humbled by such a quick response.


My original letter tells how I would go two weeks previous to Tim. My plan was to work on a jungle mission school with people from The Grove (the sending church in Phoenix, AZ), then meet up with Tim at the airport in Monrovia and bus up to Yekepa. Once we saw the effort it would take to coordinate the travel and realized that about $1300 could be saved, we decided to eliminate the first portion of the plan. We will now travel together! It looks like the dates will be within a day or two of June 22 – August 3 (tickets can’t be purchased until we have all those funds on hand).


The Grove is still very much involved. They are getting airline tickets for us from a missions travel discounter, coordinating our transport to/from Monrovia - Yekepa, and providing housing at the African Bible College. Yet, once Bekah dropped from their portion of the trip, it made it difficult for them to handle the donations.


Instead, our church has graciously agreed to receive, disburse, and provide tax receipts for all monies donated. For those who have already given, we will work with the Grove to handle it properly. For those who haven’t yet sent support, please write Hoesterey on the memo line and send checks to:
          Family Heritage Church.
          78998 Miles Ave 
          La Quinta, CA 92253

Again, thank you first and foremost for your prayers. Please consider supporting us!


God Bless!
