6th 80 for Education Ellis family fundraiser update

Hey everyone!
Many of you have emailed us to see what happened with the fundraiser, since yesterday was our deadline of June 1st for the tuition for our kids here in Taiwan. A little over two weeks ago, we had nothing (zero, zip, nada) toward sending our kids to school in the fall. With all of your generosity and prayers, we had $6,000 come in! Praise God! Unfortunately, that was $2,000 short of what we needed. After talking with the school, they agreed to let us pay what we had, and gave us until the end of July to pay the rest. We only had to pay a $100 late fee, and avoided having to pay interest. So, if you would like to help us finish off this last $2,000, you can click on "Donate" in the top right corner, or you can send a check in to YWAM Montana, 501 Blacktail Road, Lakeside, MT 59901 and make the check out to YWAM including a slip of paper indicating it is for Sean and Katie Ellis (you have to mail a check in if you want a tax deductible receipt).
It has been such an incredible thing for our children to see God provide. When we told them that we were moving away from their home to go to Taiwan to do missions, it was a difficult time of saying goodbye to friends and their own country. God has continued to meet them just where they are at, helping us send them to the Christian school this year, providing new friendships, and encouraging them that He is with them. Our prayer was that we would do missions as a family; the children just as involved as we are in this faith journey. As we have prayed with the children these last two weeks, it has been great to see the look on their faces when we tell them of another donation coming in. God also answered one of our prayers by providing someone who can help Max and Sophia with their Chinese this summer. They are actually excited about this, even though it is their summer break from school. Max teaches me new words in Chinese all the time (like french fries and ice cream!).
Thank you again for helping us be here in Taiwan as missionaries! Check out our new video update below.
