The Home Stretch
The days a moving more quickly as we arrived back in Indianapolis after our Southwest and West Coast partner raising trip. We are glad to be back and thankful for the time with great churches, wonderful friends and awesome family time. We experienced a ton of great things but we are grateful to be back home again in Indiana. There are many things to accomplish in the next few months and your prayers will be appreciated and you will find a list of the prayer needs below plus some praises. You will also see a timeline of events and an update of where we are and how you can partner with us. Go check out our website, hinkledownunder.com,for more updates, random thoughts, etc.

Why are those people so happy? Don't the see that bear behind them? They are happy because we know we are about to head to the place God has called us to serve Him. We are almost ready to leave for Perth. The Hinkles need 25 people to commit to $100 a month for us to be fully funded. The Shadburnes (part of our ministry team) need 33 people to commit to $100 a month. Obviously, any size monthly pledge will be appreciated. We know that everyone who joins us monthly, no matter the amount, are each month praying for us and for what God is doing in Perth. We would love to have you join us. Follow the links to support the Hinkles or the Shadburnes or both of our families. Our hope is to be there during the Australian winter/spring so we can have plenty of time to build solid relationships before summer holidays.
