Hey Everyone,
I miss you all! I am so blessed by each of you and your heart for the Lord. Since I have arrived home it has been super busy. I am getting my wisdom teeth pulled on friday. And have just seemed to not be able to catch up with everything I need to get done. I keep getting unexpected issues come up, which has been wonderful for my dependence on the Lord, the Lord is Soverign. I know that God will provide and He is providing!! Praise the Lord. What I would love you all to pray for is I just met with one of the pastors from the church I work at. He was telling me that, A reciept for tax purposes cannot be issued by a Canadian non-profit, charity/church on behalf of an organization which does not have a charitable status reqistration with revenue Canada. Basically what this means is that the church that said they can give tax deductions actually cant and on my support letter it says they can, which they still think they can, yet cannot. So the money that has been raised so far people believe it is tax deductable yet it is not. I hope I am explaining it right?!?!
So what I need to do now is tell the church that they can not give tax deductions to these people and I need to take it off my support letter. So there is no way around it every Canadian going on the world race can not get tax deductions.
I am praying and I ask you to join me, that everyone that has donated will not want there donations back because there is no tax deduction and that they will not feel deceived by the church in claiming they can when they cant. I am also praying that people will give in obedience to God joyfully. I am in need of wisdom and discernment. I am also thankful that the Lord can use this as an opportunity to show that He is my provider and my strong tower. I can not do this on my own I need you Lord.
I will keep you updated on this.
Another Prayer request is that I am in the process of becoming a member at a church I have been going to for a while, I am also going to this other church I am a member at out of baptism. The Lord has been leading me to become a member at the church I am being feed at for a while (I have been attending both regularly). I have been putting it off out of guilt. And the timing is now. I personally thing the timing is not the best, but I feel God saying it is so I will trust Him.
Thank you for all your prayers and support!
I love you all
