Monthly Report - April & May
In the last few months, we have seen God provide in amazing ways! We spent all of April praying that God would provide the right people for our Board of Directors, and by early May, the board was staffed and meeting. As a result, our ministry has taken on a few key changes that will allow us to make an even greater impact for the Kingdom. For more details, check out our revised presentation at www.MissionItaly.org.

God also provided another set of wheels for us! Abbie and I had been sharing our little Corolla for about 18 months, and it was becoming very difficult to manage two working schedules. Long story short, God blessed us with everything we were looking for in a car, including the right terms of financing. What a blessing!

Finally, we have great news on the education front. I have been cleared for take-off by the Dean of Fine Arts at UT. Starting August 24th, I will be enrolled in 3 classes at Austin Community College for the completion of my degree. I will be finished by December 2009, and my official graduation date will be May 2010.


Progress Report
We have been working hard since the formation of our Board of Directors to raise $1,500 by the time we left for Georgia. We were able to raise $1,100 toward that goal.

Our next support goal is $2,500 by August. We are praying that friends and family in the Georgia and Florida area will be generous in their support. These goals are extremely important to us, especially as we are approaching my last semester of college. We will need this money in time to pay for tuition and books. We are so grateful to have such giving friends and family. You have all been a great blessing to us!

Taking Our Show on the Road
We have finally gotten a start to our summer trip that will take us to Georgia and Florida. Please pray for safe travel and a positive response to our ministry as we raise support in Abbie’s home town of Brunswick, Georgia.
