Only 53 more days....

After meeting with our Scotland team on Saturday, April 19th, we are more enthusiastic than ever about the upcoming physical and spiritual journey. We are all feeling a little overwhelmed with logistics at this point! I meant to take a picture of the team and forgot this week. I will work towards getting that done next time we meet.

We continue to pray for God's financial provision for our trip. We originally felt the Lord lead us to raise only our airfare ($4000) and then pay for the rest of our expenses ourselves ($3000). We are still raising money towards the airfare goal until May 4th. We know that God is making a provision for this trip and we continue to trust Him. Thank you for praying for us to wait patiently and faithfully.

We ask for your prayers regarding the following:
1. That the remaining airfare amount is raised.

2. We have about a dozen questions that need to be answered by the YWAM base staff.

3. That God will open the doors for our team to minister in the King's Kids ministry in the innercity of Glasgow.

4. We hope that we will be able to take already made curtains for the lecture hall we are renovating.

5. Our church is working on several ways to collaborate with our team. Pray that DRBC will know what God is asking them to do to be part of this trip and that they will courageously obey.


Velder Travel Expenses: $4000
Total as of 4/24/08: $3050
