As of the beginning of March, the July 2013 – Route 3 (AKA 'S' Squad) is full! S Squad is complete at 56 individuals!
As some of you read in one of my recent blog posts, we meet face to face on May 18th for Training Camp. That's just a quick 45 days!
Here's the catch:
In order for our entire squad to join together for our week of training before this trip, we must each have met the 1st of 4 financial deadlines.
The goal is for each of us to have a minimum of of $3,500 in our World Race support accounts by April 22nd. Because of processing delays, that means the money has to be on its way by about April 15th… only a few more days from now!
Many of us have already met the first deadline, but several of us have not and none of us are fully funded… YET.
Will you join me in praying for the preparation needed for each of us to be ready for our launch in July?!
How about committing to pray for 11 days (beginning now) in honor of the 11 months we will be serving on the mission field?
Will you go before the King of kings on our behalf and ask Him to find and deliver the missing money that belongs in our accounts? Would you pray that God would provide for each of us just on time and that He would be beautifully glorified in the process?
Friends, below is a list of each member of the S Squad as well as where we are from and links to our personal World Race pages. The racers who are listed in bold italics are the ones who have yet to meet this first financial deadline. Please feel free to get to know any or all of us! Check out our blogs and see what God is doing in and through us. Pray for us. Donate to support us. Tell your friends about us.
Let me just conclude with this:
We all are so grateful and humbled by your love, prayers, support and encouragement! We know that the prayers of a righteous person are powerful and effective (James 5:15-18) so please know that your prayers are important to us.
In addition, if God does put it on your heart to give financially, don't be discouraged that what you may have to give is too small of an amount. When we hear God and obey, it is enough! No gift is too insignificant; for all you know, your gift is exactly what is needed.
