Hi Dear Friends and Avid Readers of our CRAZY adventures called life in ministry=) Since I last wrote you about 10 days ago, I have been SO encouraged by many of you going out of your way to call, e-mail or share words of encouragement with us during this challenging but exciting transition back West. We have seen God provide for us in SO many ways including free housing for our first 3 months back, a great used vehicle, cell phone and basic food money while we pray into how Freed by Design will form and be used to transform lives.
 
I spent last Saturday attending a Fashion and Freedom show full of “causal” products including American made jeans, Bolivian Alpaca sweaters and Mongolian scarves. These companies work for the betterment of people just like Freed by Design and I am excited to continue to network with and promote other ethical companies while I work on launching Freed by Design.
 
In ONE week, we have
1) Moved from the Pacific Palisades to our new one bedroom apartment in Long Beach
2) Scored a GREAT tutoring job on my prayer walk for work!
3) Launched the website for Freed by Design www.freedbydesign.org (so check it out and spread the word!! Popular leaves on sale now! Pictured on right)
4) Shared the vision at my first boutique of the Christmas season (with one more coming up on November 19th at Fuller Seminary)
5) Raised $200-$300 more in monthly support
 
 This leaves us the call for 50 more people to respond for supporting our works towards fighting injustices around the world. IF…..We would be covered.
26 more people gave $10
17 more people gave $25
5 more people gave $50
4 more people gave $100

Thank you to the 10 people who responded THIS week to this very much needed support. It has been a challenging time indeed but God is SO faithful and we will not stop at anything to continue to carry out the vision he has placed on our hearts and lives. We thank you for your prayers and we would love to be a prayer partner to you as well! We know we ALL have our needs and we are the body–so let’s do this together!
 
With GREAT love and admiration to you all!!
