Support Need

prayercard

prayercardDear friends,
In case you haven’t heard I am planning to return to the Philippines at the end of September. I will be teaching middle school drama, helping with productions, and also being a part of team that does design work for Faith Academy (publications, promotions, etc). I will also be exploring new ways to be a part of the Threads of Hope ministry. Last but definitely not least I will continue to serve Beulah Beach with things like publications and website remotely. Busy? Yes. Aweomse? Completely!

It was in April of this year while I was visiting the Philippines with my mom that I really felt God calling me to take this step. I spent a lot of the summer praying about it because due to a busy summer here at Beulah it really seemed impossible to be able to leave this soon. By the end of the summer I knew for sure it was suppose to do and I began putting the word out, sending letters, and making steps to raise support and prepare to go. Unfortunately, because of the timing, I am in need of immediate action when it comes to support. If you have been planning to have been considering what you can do to support me financially, I kindly ask that you do so as soon as possible. I am unable to purchase a plane ticket, though all other preparations are in place, until I have have approximately $1800 pledged as monthly support.

There are several ways you can do this.

Online
You can donate online via the First Love International site. Please put my name in the “other ministry” slot and indicate in the “special instructions” if your gift will be monthly. Righ now there is not a way to do an automatic pay through credit card unless your credit card company offers an automatic bill pay through their website.

Mail
You can mail a check directly to First Love. You can do a monthly withdrawl from your financial institution if you send a voided check and indicate when/amount to be withdrawn.

Auto Bill Pay
Most banks do an automatic free bill pay system where they will mail a check and amount to the address you specify.

Thank you so much for your kind support, encouragement, and prayers.

Love,
Crystal

Leaving on a helicopter

So we flew on a jet plane north to Tuguegarao (it’s just as much fun to say as it is to spell)

Commence Life Change

July 1, 2014 No Comments

This is the face of how Hannah and I feel about May. It’s a no good terrible rotten time. Too much change, too many goodbyes, beginning a love hate/relationship with skype. But that is the life we lead, it is the nature of the expat/missionary life. When you venture to a place far away from the home and people you grew up with the world suddenly becomes a much bigger place. You can’t unmeet people and forget that life is going on without you in each new place anymore than you can forget that life goes on in the place you grew up, went to school, church etc. Sometimes I’m like whhhhy did I open that door? I cannot shove it shut! I cannot forget you people! But then I recognize that it’s only such a painful experience because it’s such a great experience. In the end, your world gets smaller because your friends begin to populate the areas between you and the people you love that are furthest from you. I could just play hopscotch across the globe and find pieces of my heart that were stolen from me (okay okay, I gave them willingly). Anyway, you get the idea.

A Midsummer Night’s Dream

This post is hard for me to write. Mostly because it’s hard to describe the experience with words. For those of you know the kind of experience I had with my senior theatre project at Cedarville then you understand exactly the kind of emotions, awe, and wonder that this production evoked. It truly was a midsummer night’s dream. NOT intentionally PUNNY! (The hot season in the Phils or summer is from from March to May. Our play was April 24-26. :o) The great thing about Shakespeare is that it a blank canvas, you can do whatever you want with it. But I’ve come to realize that the blank canvas can also be TOTALLY overwhelming when you aren’t an abstract thinker. Thankfully, I had willing people around me who stepped up to help brainstorm, design, choreograph, buy fabric, paint, sew, and tell me the ideas I did have weren’t crazy (even when they were). I felt like the luckiest director in the world as I sat in the audience and watched our creation come to life.
