Desserts are for Sharing

In case you missed the big news... WE GOT OUR MATCHING GRANT! The Lord brought us $10,000 through your generosity in less than 2 months. I mean... that's incredible. I have turned in the paperwork and now we just wait for the $5000 to come from our other generous donors through MTW!!!

For the first time since March we are not watching numbers to see if we will make it to the end of the month. And its a good feeling. But these months have been so good for me, so much faith building. God has provided every month what we need and always in HIS timing! Praise Him for it and I am praying that I will not get comfortable, but continue to trust in His provision and timing.

Desserts are for Sharing


Thats a true statement right? I love a big Molten Lava Cake at Chilis with 5 spoons passed around :)

But this is a little different! Starting today I am signing people up for Desserts are for Sharing. I will be in the Raleigh area January 8th - 19th with the purpose of sharing about the ministry of Puerta de Esperanza and I am praying for MONTHLY DONORS for the ministry!

When I think back to how the Lord provided my monthly donors four years ago when I left for the field (can you believe its been almost 4 years???) it happened mostly through meeting with small groups of 6-8 people, sharing, and answering questions about the ministry. The tricky, and yet wonderful news, is that most of the people that I met with now support us!! But that means I don't really know who else to contact. So if you have a few friends who may be interested, a small group at your church, a prayer group, people who have a heart for missions... would you consider hosting a night of Desserts are for Sharing? The Lord has been so faithful to us and I would love to share about that with whoever will listen!

If you would like to host a small group please email me at ssinnes@gmail.com. It would be great to have some afternoon times and some evening times, we could even make dessert waffles and have breakfast :)
