What is going on?

My prayer has been, "Don't allow the money to come in if you don't want me to go this summer". God has brought in enough money to show me He does want me to go, but not enough for me to go this summer. So I am planning on going to Idaho in Sept. for training and then to Northern India for outreach. It's hard to say exactly where I am with the finances because I have a lot of people who have told me they are giving but not the amount. Plus I have several friends who have committed to find 20 people give $5, and I am not sure how that is coming. But I do know I don't need as much for this team. I only have about $2500 left to raise. That is 5 people to give $500, 25 people to give $100, 100 people to give $25, 500 people to give $5, or any combination! It has been awesome to see how God has worked and moved. So much of the money has been given by people who are already on the mission field and faith supported themselves. Money has come from strangers, friends, loved ones, and everything in between. Thank you to everyone who has supported me thus far and helped spread the word. I am available to work and open to suggestions for fundraisers.

Could you help me make it happen?

Can God raise $10,000 in 20 days? Absolutely! And I want to invite you to be part of this miracle. I am looking for 200 people to give $5 (more is fine too) this weekend. That is just giving up one Starbucks coffee or a Happy Meal or a Pizza. Would you be willing to do that to be part of spreading the word of God around the world? If you can't give could you help by sending others here? Total I need 2000 people to give $5 but we already have over $1000 in hand and $3000-$4000 promised. Yes I need more then 200 people by June 10th but it would be a huge encouragement to me to see that happen this weekend. What if I don't get the all the money by 6/10? Well I will go in Aug. but I feel God has at least asked me to trust Him and try to raise it to go in June. His timing is perfect so I know if I am not to go in June then all the money won’t come in. But it is so exciting to see how God is providing. And it will be a miracle if He provides it that quickly!
