So much to share and we have been on the road lots without Internet. While we waited for the move in date (August 24th), God has done so many neat things! Some have been teaching us to wait on His will and timing. If you do not get our newsletter and want to see pictures and more on the latest move, please message us with your information!
Some amazing things that have happened lately with the mission:
- One new church and 2 new supporters have committed to monthly giving as the school grows. We are still praying for more, but so thankful for these!
- With our time waiting on the closing, our time in the states was longer than a month, so we got extra time with family and kids being in American summer sports.
-Andy Nichols, from OCC, is joining us for the spring semester to teach at WISE.
- Sweet Jenny, the owner of the WISE Center, in Barbados hosted Brice and Co. and they got to inspect the property WISE is buying to grow.
- We had a great pastor's meeting with local pastors in Barbados to help teach in the college there!
- So many have told us of their excitement and prayers for the move!
- Neighbors and Brice and Dave were able to get the shipping containers packed and sent off on the boat in 2 days in SVG!
- A supporting church paid for all the shipping containers!
- We started a new fundraising campaign for the new property and so many dear supporters have helped us almost reach $8,000 of the $10,000 matching grant that was given.
- New friends and pastors helped get inspections going for the school to soon open in Barbados.
- Applications have started coming in for new students in the new property of 6 acre college!
- Several groups have committed to coming to help ready to campus for the new start!
- Our van and gas travel was donated by family this summer.
- Dear partners and board members sent us on a special family time trip this past week to be together as our family and to have fun together.
- We have traveled over 10,000 miles seeing so many dear friends and churches, we are so blessed to have so many great partners!
-Two more weeks and we move into the new school......nothing beats having a dresser than a suitcase!
So so humbled and grateful for all God is doing and that we get to be a part of it!
