Dates are set. Tickets are reserved. People are committed to an 11 day short term mission trip
to support the Janz family in Latvia. A team of skilled trades are planning to rebuild the roof on the home where the family resides. Other work on the secondary buildings which will be used for mission activities including leadership building retreats will be performed as time permits.
Minimum fund raising commitments are being taken on for those signing on to this mission. Fund raising plans will also be undertaken at Maple Ridge Baptist Church.
There have been years of prayers from many supporters that God would open the doors for this work to happen. At this time it seems that He is opening doors for this work to be accomplished by people who are being called to be His hands and feet. With the September dates for this travel seemingly still a ways off it is so important to not to let complacency set in or to stop doing the work that is being laid before us. There is much planning and preparing and each and every day must be used to execute the goals Our Father is setting before us.
As the word goes out to those who support the Janz family it is important to recognize the financial needs for this work. For those that may wish to take part with gifts to the Janz's it would be prudent to contact them directly. Also there is support information elsewhere in this blog.
Most critically, this work needs prayer warriors around it to see it through completion.
