For those of you that are new readers or those who just randomly stumbled across my blog, you might not know that I’m a support-raised missionary. This means that I raise funds to work the job that I work in for Adventures In Missions (AIM). 
My support goal is $20,000 for this year.
So far I have raised roughly $8,000 of my support goal.
Until I am fully supported, I have been asked to take a support raising class where I will learn how to better connect people to my ministry and also receive accountability (in other words, someone’s going to stay on top of me until I get all of my support raised). While this is going to take up a lot of my time, it’s a necessary step until I reach my goal. Here is a more formal version of what I am doing through Kingdom Come Training:
To all of my ministry partners,Because you folks are important to me, I am sending a quick note to update you on what is happening with my life and ministry and to ask for your prayer.My long-range plan is to continue in my ministry with Adventures In Missions (AIM) and serve as a missions mobilizer through marketing. However, for the next few months I will be (partially) assigned to the fun task of connecting personally with as many believers as possible at home to share my vision and give people the opportunity to partner with me in various ways.I am excited about an intense three-week online training course I will be taking to help me share my vision more effectively and connect people with a vital purpose for their redemption: being the expression of Christ to the nations.At this point I am not asking for (increased) financial partnership in my ministry. Rather, I am asking for your prayer as I take on this course with lots of homework, and then launch this exciting temporary assignment. I look forward to getting in touch with you when my training is complete.Gratefully In Him,
Matt Snyder
That’s the latest. If you would like to partner with me in ministry through prayer or financial support at this time, you can contact me and I will let you know the necessary next steps. Until then… I’m eager to see where this class can lead me in better connecting people to this ministry.
I start my classes at the end of this month. I will be sure to blog about what I’m learning. It should be helpful for a lot of people and I’d love to keep you in the loop on what God’s teaching me through this!
