Greetings!

What an encouraging response we received to our personal request! Even our next door neighbor contributed $500 towards our new apartment (I hope it wasn't to get us to move away?!). Actually, they were very kind. We received contributions from friends old and new around the world. Some who remember us at Beit Immanuel from more than 20 years ago. Others had been touched by our ministry and want to give something back to help us carry on with the work. People we have never even met had heard about our need and just wanted to help.

 

So far, including committments to help in the coming months, we have close to $10,000! This is so encouraging! While initially we were hesitant to make this personal need known, with all the support and goodwill so many of you have shown, we are really encouraged. It is so good to have friends standing with us and willing to help. For this we are especially thankful. 

So we are well on the way towards our goal with another $20,000 needed for the downpayment on our first apartment. People asked if it is possible to use the internet as a simple way to contribute, so we set up a Paypal account. This is an easy and fast way to transfer funds at no cost to you. Just click the link below and follow the instructions. I can let you know immediately that your transfer has arrived. 


Otherwise just let us know if you would like to help and I will get right back to you. We plan to keep you informed on our progress with a regular update until we have reached the goal. So please consider making a contribution. Any amount counts!

This is so exciting! Thank you for being a part of our lives and work. "How good and how pleasant it is when we dwell together in unity. For there the Lord commands the blessing..."

Joyfully,

David and Michaella
