We want to thank you for your prayer support as we continue our work with ARM Ministries. We cannot do the work of the ministry without others supporting us in prayer. There are lots of things going on with ARM Ministries that we want to share with you and we will share some other things we have been doing below. Both Reid and Carrie continue conversations with mission founder and President, Alan Mezger, about transferring much of the daily administration activities for the mission from Dallas, TX, to Dundee, OR. Alan and Dianne are entering a new phase in ministry life and the daily administrative work is just too much to handle (in addition to the ministry load and working toward his DMiss degree, Alan has just accepted the position of VP for the South Central Region of the Evangelical Missiological Society which is a great honor). The good thing is that we (particularly Carrie) are able to take on this role for the ministry.
What does that involve? Well, a good portion has to do with tracking and managing all of the financial contributions toward our missionaries and workers. Eventually, we will move the physical address for the mission up to Oregon and will also take on the monthly distribution of funds to our missionaries and workers. Alan and Reid are working on a transition plan that will begin sometime this fall. What that really means is that Carrie's time will get busier as it is allocated toward mission support. That also means that we would appreciate your financial contributions to allow us to focus on the work of the ministry. We need to supplement what we receive as a partial salary through Reid's work at Western Seminary (see more about that below) and other jobs we have done in the past. Future plans also include the ability for us to travel to visit with our missionaries and serve alongside our Director of Member Care, Frank Majors. We want to thank you for your past financial support for us as well as your prayers on our behalf.
Would you please pray along with us for these financial needs (we are seeking additional funding of around $2,000 per month) to support these activities and our future travel for missions support? We also request that you pray for this transition as Alan and Reid continue to work along with the ARM Ministries board to develop a sound plan for this transition. Again, we thank you for your support of us as we continue serving God by supporting the delivery of His Gospel to people around the world.
