DTS Budget Update

We are 1 month into it and 1/5 of the way through! It’s hard to believe how fast it’s going. Jen and I were talking about how weird it is to call this place home but it really has become our home. With the time that has passed we have already seen the hand of God in our lives time and time again. One of those aspects is in finances. Thanks to you, our many supporters, we have been able to finish paying for the first portion (lecture phase) of the DTS. It’s always hard and humbling to ask for money but through faith we realize that God does provide. These provisions are only possible through the help of our family and friends. Below, I have listed an up to date budget but remember don’t give unless you feel called to do so… the last thing we want is a gift out of guilt. Finally, remember that there are so many more of us down here that have yet to receive funding needed to complete the course. So continue to pray for finances and the location of the outreach as well.
