Outpost For Christ
(Ayuda Para Los Afligidos)
Greetings in Christ ;
At the finish of our 50th home, we have been looking forward to a new start this year of 2012. In August Jose finished the upper concrete work at the Outpost. We are now making plans to return to Cumbres to cover the second floor, install the electrical portion, and start the restroom on that floor. Jose is going to start the stairs that will access the second floor, the first of February. We are forming a team to go in March to do the needed work. The dates are March 9- March 17th. There is still room in the van for a few more, if you are interested. Please call Kirk @ 509-220-9051 if you want to go.
When we sent out our last letter, in Nov. of 2011, we mentioned that to finish the cover of the second floor, it would require approx. $5,000. In early Jan. of this year, I believe that God answered our prayers. A special family has offered to match dollar for dollar, up to $2,500 towards the building of Stage 2. That means we have to get busy and raise the difference. We have until April 1st. Can we do it, we can’t, however God Can. Every dollar that comes in will be for the matching Building Fund only.
With the coming of the New Year, it is once again time to assemble our summer team or teams for Mexico Missions. We have a tentative date of July 7th thru July 14th. We will be inviting interested individuals from different churches to take part. It should provide a great opportunity to meet and learn to work along side people from different. If you are going, we encourage you to invite a friend and/or a relative. We did some of these types of trips in 2004 and 2005.
Again, we want to thank you for your prayers and financial support over the years.
In Christ Service, Kirk and the directors of Outpost for Christ
