Transportation

Our current vehicle that we've been driving for the past 11 years (pictured above) has performed admirably during that time and currently has 344,000 miles on the odometer. Those of you who know us, are aware how essential a dependable vehicle is to our traveling ministry, and we've been shopping around for a nice pre-owned car. It has been our experience this past thirty-nine years of full-time ministry, that God uses people to meet the needs. I've hesitated for the past two years in setting up a Go Fund Me campaign because I've witnessed the abuses that have taken place with this type of fund raiser. But, after receiving encouragement from my wife, close friends, and other ministers to do so, I felt that it was time. 
"Old Betsy" (my affectionate term for our current vehicle) is in need of some major repairs. We don't want to drive her till she dies broken down on the side of the road somewhere. And should we not achieve our original goal, we'll use whatever is raised to perform the necessary repairs on our current vehicle. 
If many of the churches we ministered for over the years could contribute a sizeable missions offering, I believe we could easily meet our goal. But, ultimately it's all in the Lord's hands as we take this step of faith. I humbly ask that you take it to the Lord in prayer, and respond to His voice accordingly. We are grateful for all contributions, it means the world to us.
Thank you for taking the time to read this appeal.
