Sold!

 

Today we sold our house!  We are continually amazed at how God is paving the path to move our family to Swaziland.  As we strive to follow His plan, He keeps reminding us that He is in control.

 

We wanted to address some of the frequently asked questions that we have received:

 

1.  What is your timeframe for moving?  Originally, our goal was September 2014.  Some things have happened a little sooner than expected (like selling our house) and we are thinking maybe God wants us there sooner.  It really just depends on our partners and how quickly we can form a team and reach 100% of our support goal.  We are hopeful that after the boys finish school in May, we could move and begin training for summer teams.  It all depends on God’s timing.

 

2.  How much money do you have to raise?  We need to secure approximately $50,000 annually which is close to $4,200 per month.  The “ideal” situation is to have partners that will commit to a monthly amount, but any gift is greatly appreciated.  Between commitments that have already started and those beginning in January, we have reached about 25% of our goal.  We are so thankful to those who have started supporting our ministry.  The funds raised prior to leaving will help us with start up costs of setting up a new residence and stocking our home with necessary items.  Due to the limited space, items we will take from the states will be at a minimum.  If you would like to become part of our team, you can easily sign up using the “support me” tab on the left side of this blog.  If you would like to support through bank draft, go to this link:  www.adventures.org/dynapay.  We would love to partner with you throughout this journey!!!

 

3.  Where will you live?  We will live in the Manzini area, which is a modern city in Swaziland.  We are not sure of the exact location since it is too early to secure housing.  Just to clarify, we will not be living in a hut.  The housing situation will be similar to what we have in the states, including running water and electricity.

 

4.  What will the boys do about school?  They will be homeschooled.  Even though the boys have never been homeschooled, this is typical for missionary families.  We hope to obtain guidance from the in-county missionary families already in this process. 

 

Thanks for reading our blog and we ask that you continue to pray as God leads our team to pursue His glory.
