This Hawaiian saying reminds me of Ephesians 3:20 which says that I N S I D E T H I S I S S U E : God ...is able to do immeasurably more than all we Ministry & Support 2 ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within Prayer Requests & 2 us.

We are planning to leave for Hawaii in MAY 2012. The month of June begins a peak ministry period in Hawaii with Christian Youth in Action (CYIA) This program is designed to train high school, college students and other young people in effective and engaging ways to teach children about God. After this training, teams of young people go into apartment complexes, daycare centers, neighborhoods, schools other community locations and wherever children can be found and share the gospel each day throughout the summer months. Without sufficient staff to train and organize this program, the ministry to the keiki (children) of Hawaii will suffer greatly. God has been providing Hawaii with a HUGE workforce (40 summer missionaries) but if we do not have the staff with the contacts for ministry opportunities, we wind up with

a greatly underutilized workforce, who then get discouraged because they do not see their value in the ministry. Schools, which have had Good News Clubs , lose that Gospel witness, as those who volunteer to take up the slack for lost staff begin to feel overburdened and quit. These are only a few reasons why we need your financial partnership to get to Hawaii in MAY 2012. As we seek to do what God has called us to do, we walk in faith that He will provide. I challenge you to take a step of faith and see what the Lord will do as you partner with us financially and most of all, as you invest in Gods Kingdom in reaching the children of Hawaii. We will be joining forces to defend the faith and fight the good fight. Partner with us so that we MAY reach the children!
