A Partnership: How to Support Me

NUMBER ONE - PRAYER. I am off on this exciting new journey, and I know the Lord will teach me many new things. He gives us just what we need, when we need it. Pray that I will be diligent in my relationship with God so that I can serve Him with my best. Pray for my students and opportunities to interact with Kenyans. Pray for God to work in Africa. Let me know how I can pray for you. :)


The deal on financial support

God is good. Through the support of friends and family, I raised 100% of my outgoing and monthly needs in no time. Thank you. You should see my monthly pledges - I am at EXACTLY 100%! (Well, 33 cents over!) Praise God!

If you would like to give a one-time gift, you easily give online. Or, if you prefer, you can mail a check to AIM. Please don't write my name on the check, just write it to Africa Inland Mission and include my name on a sticky note. The address is:

Africa Inland Mission

PO Box 178

Pearl River, NY 10965

If you want to give a bit each month, you can sign up for automatic giving at this web address or download this pledge card and mail to the above address.

My monthly need is $1989. This great pie chart, available here, shows how each dollar is split in my account. Every gift you give through AIM is tax deductible and split as seen in the pie chart - toward retirement, social security, salary, etc. If you would like to give a personal gift - that is not tax deductible, but also not split into the said categories - write the check out to my name and send it to AIM. They will deposit it into my bank account for me.

That's the updated information on how to give financially. Thanks for all you've done. I wouldn't be here with out you!
