Simos Family Ministry Update-March 2011

.

"79..80! Do I hear 81...82?" Another 10% increase in February! The above quote is from Pastor Don Jennings of Harbour Shores Church; our home church. Pastor Don has been preaching on Biblical Stewardship and a couple of weeks ago, we were asked to share our testimony (click here to hear testimony). As Don eludes to in his quote, we need to hear from you! We're getting closer to being fully funded! Praise God for our new supporters in February! We feel as though we are headed down the home stretch. While our support comes in many different shapes and sizes, the simple math looks like this. To hit 100%, we need: 10 more partners at $50 a month 5 more partners at $100 a month So just 15 more partners standing with us! Support Options On-Line: The easiest way to give is by clicking the pie chart above for on-line giving. There is also the option to auto-deduct. Just select Simos family in the Gift Designation field. Mail: You can also mail checks to Freedom International Ministries, 2905 E 46th Street, Indianapolis, IN 46205.

When giving, simply indicate how often you plan to give and we will budget accordingly. I would encourage you to check out Pastor Don's sermons on Stewardship. Listen on-line or download the sermons for free by clicking on the link provided. During Deputation This time of preparation has been extremely valuable. God has been teaching me, Josh, that God's Glory is the most important thing. That may sound simple, but think of it like this...God and His Glory is more important than my house, my car, my job, my income...my LIFE...and even the LIFE of Others! Is that our perspective? That was Aaron's perspective in Lev 10:1-3 when God struck dead Aaron's 2 sons for His Glory's sake! The Scripture states "and Aaron held his peace". He said nothing...He did not complain or shake his fist at God but simply understood that God's Glory was even more important than the lives of his 2 sons. This passage has blessed me immensely as I've thought about it for some time now. Praise God for His Glory! In His Service Josh, Toni, Kinsey, Elle & Gabe

During February... Freedom Int'l Ministries The Hilgeman's, now living in the DR, started visiting the villages near San Pedro in preparation for the village ministry that is set to begin this July. Please pray for direction as we choose a village and look for land to establish a school. Somethings cook'n Given our current situation, I have been taking on the household stuff like cooking and so, I enlisted the help of my good friend (and professional chef) Angelo Brown. With his coaching, I've been able to put a few edible items on the table, such as Sweet Potato Minestrone!
