Our contact, Ayim, in Australia wanted me to send my supporters this message:
"There is no other nation or group of people in the world that are more loving and more willing to help others like Americans. Your support has blessed so many people and saved so many lives. May you never tire of doing good, and may God bless you and your families!"
~Dr. Kwabena Ayim, Darwin Australia
So I thought I’d do a little recap of all that God has been doing and show my supporters exactly where the money you have donated has been going.
We are currently in Month 3 in Vietnam and spent Month 1 in Malaysia and Month 2 in Australia.
Easily 90% of the funds we receive are used for lodging, transportation and food. The remaining funds are available at our discretion for personal care items (shampoo, conditioner, toilet paper, etc.), fun spending money (wildlife park, wave pool, etc.) and ministry supplies/support. So far we have used the bulk majority of the discretionary funds for ministry supplies. We have been blessed with the opportunity to purchase the following items:
20 Nepali Bibles for recent Nepali believers in Malaysia
Football for Malaysian boy
Chinese Presbyterian Church cash gift
Gift for Immanuel Mission Center
Sidewalk Chalk for VBS at Bagot Church
Cookies and food for services at Bagot Church
It has been amazing to see God use us to bless others all over the world! I want to thank you all for your financial and prayer support. It is the money you have provided that has supplied these items. It is your faithfulness in giving that has allowed me food to eat on a daily basis. I want to show my deepest gratitude and appreciation. Because of you 20 men in Malaysia have bibles in their native language. Because of you a boy in Malaysia has a football to play with. Because of you aboriginal people in Australia have tasted chocolate peanut butter no-bake cookies for the first time in their lives! Because of you the children of Bagot have had VBS service where they can learn all about the wonders and glory of God Almighty. Because of you people have heard the Gospel and are being set free!
The vision God gave my teammate, Laura, of a mosiac from the broken glass from the Bagot community has been made reality through your support. This is a picture of the mosiac your support funded to show the people of Bagot how God takes our messed up lives, cleans them up, and puts them together into something beautiful!
Thank you from the bottom of my heart. I am so blessed to be the ambassador of the Gospel to the far away places of the world.
I am believing and praying that God will provide the additional funds needed to stay the course and finish the race. My next deadline is December 1 and I still need to raise $1,054.26. Please pray that God will provide the funds. If He is calling you to join the race with me, you can give online by clicking the “Support Me” link on the left or mailing a check made out to Adventures in Missions with “Caitlin Martin” in the memo line to:

God Bless you all, and I love and miss you dearly! I know I am exactly where God wants me, and that is an amazing feeling!
Ps, Ms. Nancy Stenske, if you're reading this..You are my answer to prayer. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!
