How Can I Help?

Our Ministry is supported entirely on donations from individuals like yourself and churches that share our vision for completing the Great Commission

(Matthew 28:19-20)

Our needs include the following:

bullet

Prayer Support - Our greatest need is the prayers of fellow Christians praising God for His mercy and faithfulness.  We also ask prays for Him to protect us and for us to remain faithful to His plan for our ministry.  Without God's help, all else is for naught.

bullet

Monthly support - Our monthly expenses for housing, utilities, and ministry expenses are about $4,500.  We need partners who are committed to assisting us with monthly donations of $25, $50 or more for the duration of our second 5 year term. 

bullet

Well Fund - Each well that we drill costs about $2,500  for the pipes, pump and other materials and expenses, depending upon the depth and availability of materials.  We are including a bathroom with flush toilet, sink and shower at the sites that do not have them to improve sanitation conditions.  We need groups who are willing to sponsor a well (or multiple wells).  We will provide a full report, with photos to the donors.  See Paraguay Water Well Project Updates for information on the wells that have already been completed.  We recently completed the tri-fold Paraguay Water Well Program brochure for our ministry - click here to download it in PDF format - feel free to use it as needed.

bullet

Santani Church Fund - We initially established this project to build a church where we used to live in Santani.  However, the Lord has lead us to change to focus of this project to planting churches in more rural areas where there are no churches available.  We have built one church and purchased the land for a second.  Funds will be used to continue this effort.
