Financial situation
We are very aware that we are in the middle of a difficult financial season. Fuel and food prices are soaring and we know many are feeling enormous pressure. For those who support us financially, we know that it is a major sacrifice and we pray that the Lord will sustain you and continue providing for your needs. We also want to say thank you for your support, it means a lot and we praise the Lord for you. As members of OMF, we are living modestly and want to be good stewards of people’s sacrificial gifts. We also want to make you aware of our future needs so that you can be in prayer for us. When we return to Japan, we will have a few extra expenses.
- Andrew will need to start preschool after he turns 3.
- We will need to start paying Japanese national pension. (We applied for special exemption but this year we were told that we have to pay 25%.
- If possible, we would like to be able to rent a house instead of an apartment. Since we desire to do a church plant it would be nice to have a place where we could potentially gather people.
We simply ask that you be in prayer about these future needs.
Thank you for your love and prayers on our behalf. We hope that we will be able to connect in person soon!
