We are preparing to return to South America in June and July to help with our continuing mission projects in Quito and Guayllabamba. Cathy will also be going to Honduras on a medical mission team through Crossroads Church.

Delta is now offering an introductory fare of 534.00 direct from ATL to Quito which is a great rate! Anyone interested in participating at any time this summer, please call or email us and let us know. We will be there between June 15th and July 19th.

Our big request for this trip is donations to purchase reliable transportation for the pastor in Guayllabamba. We hope to raise $5,000 which will purchase a dependable used vehicle. As it is now, he cannot go to the mission churches he has started in the countries unless the bus is running that day because their current car is not reliable for long distance on dirt roads.

We continue to plan and save to return to the mission field full time in the next 2 years. We will again work to support ourselves so that all monies donated go 100% to the mission field.

Philippians 4:15
"Morever, as you Philippians know, in the early days of your acquaintance with the gospel, when I set out from Macedonia, not one church shared with me in the matter of giving and receiving, except you only...you sent me aid again and again when I was in need."

Steve and I were sent to Ecuador by God to be a part of His work because He knew that that was where help was needed, that these people had been faithful and were doing His work. Thankfully He gives different people passions for various groups around the world so that if all answer the call, the world gets covered! Whether it's in Russia with the Nelms, Jamaica with the Stricklands, or a village in Africa that calls your name, if you aren't a part of local missions, God may have your name on a foreign mission field. All are equally valid in the work of God and essential to spreading the great commission. You have no idea what the help CMC has been able to provide has meant to them and what it could do ten times over all around the world. We are happy and willing to go, and pray for the support that would allow us to return full time to this area of the world.
