… Every time we think about Mission Network, Anacortes, WA, because of the $100 they sent *again* this month. I’m just praying that God would bless them in a way that passes all comprehension. Thanks, too, to the author of “Knowing Jesus is Enough for Joy, Period!”, for his gift of $25 and promise of more to come (if we buy the book), given solely as an investment in Brigada and its future of mobilizing a global audience to greater involvement among unreached peoples and cities. Thanks to Magazine Training International for their gift of $50 toward the same purpose. Learn more about Magazine Training at…

And by the way, would you please pray with me throughout the month of May? There’s a farmer who has applied for a major grant for his overseas “business as mission” farm. By major, we’re talking way beyond anything I’ve ever heard of. If he is awarded the grant, he has committed to paying off the entire “Phase I” costs of building Emerald Hills, Team Expansion’s International Services Center (the group that provides Brigada a home). The purposes there are to pray, retreat, learn, reconnect with God, and with his creation. From the original price tag of $3.5 million for the entire project so far, Team Expansion has been able to whittle down the amount still owed to just $1.46 million. (“Just” is a very relative term, mind you.) Imagine the ‘whoops’ and ‘hollers’ if a check arrives from a business-as-mission farmer – for the entire remaining balance. We don’t have a lot of detail about the grant for which he’s applying; only that it’s huge. Would you pause right now and pray that he gets it please?
I will surely pray!
I am interested in the farming operation and their needs that you mentioned regarding the “business as missions farmer”.
Please send me information.
OK Dale. I’ll write you personally.
