As all of you know my school was short a lot of money ($81,004.40 USD) needed to complete our work here in New Zealand and in the respective nations that each team is going to.
I am writing this short note as a testimony to God's faithfulness. He has blessed our school. Through prayer and by His servants we have been able to raise enough money to send everyone here on outreach!
Please take this as an inspiring testimony to the way our God provides for His children.
There are and will be many more stories to come about how God has used us as his messengers and has brought people to the faith through your generous gifts and prayers. I will be sharing some of these stories upon my return to the States in December.
Glory to God,
Travis
Hello Everyone,
I ask that you consider giving more money towards my team. As a school we are 120,000 NZD, at the current exchange rate that is 81,004.40 USD, under what we need in order to send everyone on outreach. My team is in need of 17,888 NZD, equivalent to 12,075 USD.
Many came without funds needed for outreach. My initial reaction was to judge them and consider it a burden that they unnecessarily put on us who have been responsible. Who am I to judge, but I can assess these men and women of God. I have found many of them to be wholly devoted to God and His calling in their lives. In their personal outreach I know that they will reap fruit for the Kingdom of God.
Our calling as living sacrifices for God's will is being sought after and is burdening us. Know that I am putting in my work here.
As I have been praying it has been made obvious that, time and time again, I am blessed and am only here because of God's love. I am not responsible for this opportunity, but blessed by God through all of you. Therefore, I am RESPONSIBLE in using it and have been and will work hard every day as I am here to bring God's kingdom to earth. I will bring your money to fruition for His kingdom and am excited to share the testimonies of God's work through me and others here. Know that I have considered the power of God's body and believe that he will reap one hundred fold from what you give.
I respect and trust you all in your gifts of prayer and money. Understand that if nothing comes in, or if a ton comes in I have put my faith in Him. I am asking you to prayerfully consider this request and to do as you see fit according to the Lord's promises. I will be accountable for what you give.
Please lift us in prayer that we would handle this with respect and understanding of God's will.
Hebrews 11. By Faith,
Travis Piepho
