God's blessing, in His timing, according to His plan!



We have hit 25%!

We are so thankful for all of the support that has come in over the last two months.

After only fundraising full-time for a little more than two months, we have hit 25% of our monthly need.  That is HUGE!  We are excited to watch the rest of the support line up for us & believe that God's timing is going to be perfectly amazing!

We have been blown away with the way that God is lining things up for us.  We have had several churches contact us that we haven't even pursued ourselves.  It has really been amazing to see God use various people to help make this possible for us!  We have seen people respond in obedience to God in different ways ... regardless of the amount they are all HUGE ways in our eyes.  It is humbling & exciting to see people invest in God's ministry in Honduras.

August has been another busy month for us!  We traveled to VA to see family and to share about our ministry there, attended the regional Youth For Christ conference in Florida, & we are speaking at Ridgeville Baptist Church on August 21st & Mechanicsville Baptist Church on August 28th.  Time is flying by!  It is hard to believe that summer is almost over.

While at the conference, we heard something that has stuck with us and helped us to shift our perspective during this waiting season.

"God's blessing, in HIS timing, according to His plan"

We are so excited to start to see part of the plan for our family unfold!  We are doing all that we can to make it possible for us to be 100% funded by January so that we can begin language school.  We are trusting God to connect us with individuals and churches to make this possible!

So ... How can you help?

  • PRAY!  Prayer is the only reason that we have made it to this part of our journey.  The Lord was faithful to answer our prayers for healing and has given us the most amazing opportunity to share about the HOPE that only He can give to the world!  Please pray for our family as we face a lot of changes as well as the unknown!
  • If you have any connections for us to individuals or churches that may be interested in hearing more about God's ministry in Honduras, please email us at lpeal@myyfc.org or dpeal@myyfc.org.  We are willing to speak to small groups, community groups, churches, individuals or at any other event.  We are ready & willing to travel anywhere to share our hearts, build up prayer partners, financial partners, & make ministry connections for future mission trips.
  • Buy a raffle ticket! We are doing a raffle for a Browning Maxus 12 Gauge Semi-Automatic Black Shotgun ... perfect timing for hunting season here in SC!  Send us an e-mail if you're interested in purchasing a ticket.  The drawing will be on August 31st!

Thank you for your prayers, encouragement, and support.  We are so thankful to be on this journey with those of you that are in our corner and cheering us on!
