An end of year request

A few weeks ago I looked up verses about giving thanks. There is one refrain I read again and again.

Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good! His faithful love endures forever.

With the struggles, setbacks, and challenges that come with life, this was a great reminder to me to look to who God is, and that His love is eternal. 


Our daughter Catelin began her chemo treatments this last week and it helps to remember that God is good, present and His love has not changed.


Last week I sat with the a young ministry team who has just returned from a trip to the Ho People in India. This people group is only 1.2% Christian, and the majority follow Sarnaism, a belief in wood spirits. Our team was teaching believers to orally present Bible stories that introduce the gospel.


God’s enduring love is reaching those who have never heard.


You are an expression of God’s enduring love for us. Your support through prayers, investing in our ministry, and encouragement is tangible evidence of God’s care for us. Thank you for how you support us and our ministry.


As missionaries with Cru, we see God provide through faithful partners like you. It is typical that some have to end their support, and this year that has been more than usual. As this year draws to a close, we want to ask if you will consider helping with a special gift.


If you are considering additional giving this month, would you prayerfully consider a special gift for our ministry? Special gifts this month can help us enter 2025 with the ability to continue to focus on the ministry projects we are currently engaged with.


If you are able to help, the easiest way to give is to visit give.cru.org/0374749 and indicate how you would like to help,  You can also mail a check made to “Cru” to our home address (4126 Stonewall Dr, Orlando, FL 32812).


We are grateful to you for your faithfulness to the Lord, and your friendship with us we serve with Cru.  Whether you can help with this need now or have already helped, we are grateful for how you have partnered with us. 




May you also be reminded of His goodness and enduring love.


With love and thanks,
