Dear Prayer Team,

This is just a quickie to ask you to pray for an upcoming trip
Nikki and I have. In late August we are scheduled to fly to
Uruguay for a survey trip to see about opening that field for our
missionaries. We currently have no missionaries living and
serving there from our mission agency. But we have contacts of
ones who would like to possibly serve there if we open the field.
We also have nationals from Brazil that are interested in going
there to serve as missionaries if we open the field. So we need
to travel there for 3 or 4 days to meet with several contacts there
and study the viability for opening that field.

From there we travel directly to travel to Buenos Aires, Argentina to teach a course on evangelism and
discipleship (entitled, Good Soil Training Seminar) to a group of national pastors and lay leaders. We will
be there approximately 3 or 4 days. While there we will also seek to be an encouragement to our missionary
colleagues serving there and national leaders.

From there we travel directly to Ecuador where we will be for one week seeking to help our missionary team
in the area of team building and strategy development. Of course Nikki will be ministering the entire 3
country trip to the ladies on each of these fields.

The only snag we have run into is the cost of Nikkis airfare. I really need her with me on this trip but unless
we can raise the money for her airfare, she will not be able to travel. Her airfare cost for traveling to
Uruguay, Argentina, and Ecuador is $2260. We had one church that has already given $300 to help with this
trip so we still only lack $1960 to be able to purchase Nikkis airline ticket. We need to purchase her ticket
as soon as possible so if you can help, please let us know right away. Your gift is tax deductible. If you
would like to help, you can email us or can go to this link: http://www.abwe.org/give/online
You can give online and may use a credit card if you prefer. Please pray that we are able to raise these funds
so that Nikki can travel with me for this missions ministry trip.
