Why is there so much STUFF in this envelope?

For the three years that we’ve been in Okinawa, we have been so glad to not have to raise a lot more support…mostly because we hate doing it. We struggle with asking for money, and yet know God has called us to this ministry. Here’s the low-down: We will be getting $583 less per month from our Military contract and we are already $1000/month under our full support amount. That’s puts us in a place that is requiring us to raise more support. A step of faith for us again.

We know that there are many people who have shown interest in supporting us, and the timing wasn’t right. With two kids (one that actually eats like a real person) our monthly needs have increased while being here. Would you pray about joining our team?

Here’s how to do it in a nutshell: 1. Fill out the back of the response envelope that is enclosed in this letter. 2. If you prefer to make your donations via Electronic File Transfer, there is another brochure enclosed for you. We do this with the missionaries we support and love it because it’s so easy. Cadence will make note of your interest, and after your first actual donation, will send monthly envelopes for you. Any questions, please visit the “Finance” Page at www.cadence.org

We’re movie stars! Also enclosed is the new Malachi DVD that was just released by Cadence. Surprisingly, the camera people thought Buddy and I had good things to say (we are not very camera savvy) and the put our mugs all over it. A vain caveat from Jen…I was 8 months pregnant, in case you wonder why I resemble a whale…Jack was all up in my business, doing all his Jack antics INSIDE of me. Please enjoy the video and feel free to show it to others that you know that might be interested in this type of ministry. We are always looking for more people to come love on American Military students overseas.

May God bless you as you continue to bless us…we love being here and love doing the work God has called us to.

Buddy, Jen, Adrianne, and Jack
