:: what if you pledged $20.10… ::
I spent a portion of yesterday morning doing a little research project. Essentially I asked a lot of my friends what some fun and exciting (yet effective) support raising ideas were. What did they come up with?
$20.10 in 2010.
I’m in the process of raising support for next year so that I can stay on staff with AIM and the World Race. In case you don’t know anything about either of those, AIM is a missions organization (of which the World Race is a part) that sends out thousands of missionaries nationally and internationally every year. In fact, since it’s birth in 1989, AIM has sent over 85,000 missionaries to the field. Many remains in missions or ministry, many come back and kick up their own ministries and organizations, and several join staff. Basically, orphans are fed and introduced to families, widows are cared for, lepers are held, homes are built, churches are planted, prostitutes are freed from sexual bondage, and the world is literally changed.
And I help with it.
But in going back to my support raising efforts, my friend Ashley came up with a brilliant idea of a good support raising campaign: $20.10 in 2010. I need to find 100 people who are willing to support me for $20.10 a month for 12 months. That would give me all of the support that I need for the year!
Imagine: one hundred people making a tax-deductible donation of $20.10/ month for one year. WOW!
It sounds like quite the stretch, but I think it’s completely doable. I fully believe that God is going to provide every penny I need and I know that He’s going to use you, my readers, and many others to help me get there.
So will you pledge $20.10/month for one year?
If so, you can send me and email ([email protected]) and let me know that you’d like to be a financial partner who is pledging $20.10 in 2010. And you’re more than welcome to donate more if the Lord so leads.
If you can’t spare the finances and would like to be a prayer partner (or both), you can email me and let me know that you’d like to be a prayer partner. I have a goal of 25 and I presently have 11! Only 14 more to go…
So what’s it going to be, $20.10/month in 2010?
