The time is flying by as we continue to prepare for our big move to Taiwan! During our scouting trip there in July, God confirmed our vision and call to this nation and to the region of Asia. Sean met with leadership there, and confirmed the role he will have there in Taiwan. He will be helping 13 Bible schools throughout Asia, as well as providing mentoring, training, and teaching for the ministry there in Taiwan. Katie had her first visit there, and fell in love with the people and nation. We have seen God move miraculously already to help us on our way.
**all the money came in for our scouting trip in July, and we had a wonderful time there with everyone in Taiwan
**we received a very generous offering which helped to cover our support raising trip to Kentucky and California
**we also received another gift which is helping us with some of our initial costs of getting passports for the kids and buying tubs and boxes for shipping
**the passports came in quickly so we could send them off for the visa application
Our Prayer Requests and Needs for Taiwan
With a little over 2 months to go, we still have many things to do and finances to raise to be able to move to Taiwan. We would like to ask if you would join us in praying for these needs which we have.
Here is a list of the needs we still have:
1) tickets: $5,000- we may have to buy round trip tickets due to visa
2) shipping: $2,500- cost for actual shipping and customs
3) vehicles: $5,000- for 2 mopeds and a used van
4) furnishings: $3,000- we will need furniture and many household items as it is too costly to ship a lot of these items
5) kids' schooling: $1,000 per month in extra support or $5,000 one time gift
We are so grateful for your prayers for these needs...we could not be in missions without you. Thank you very much for being a part of our lives. Please let us know what is happening with you...we would love to be praying for you too!
With blessings and much love,
Sean, Katie, Sophia, Max, Joseph, and Kai
