Supporting Our Family

Unexpected things happen all the time in life that we can not prepare for. Pastor Mark’s passing was one of those unforeseeable events. Mark’s passing drastically impacts our entire family! We now have to completely shift the entirety of our lives! That involves relocating, a new vehicle, medical care costs, some funeral expenses, and everyday living. 

As the head of our household, Mark was the financial provider for our family. He truly took care of us. We were able to live in the ministry house, which helped significantly by taking out the cost of rent. We are now faced with the task of finding a new place to live. Moving and paying rent in the Pacific Northwest can be very expensive, especially when it’s an unexpected expense! That’s just one new cost that has been added into our lives! Mark and our mom poured their everything into the functionality of the church and rehabilitation home! The success of Victory Outreach Salem was one of their top priorities, so the investment was more than worth it to them. My mom’s life has been completely turned upside down by the sudden change of circumstances! Giving to our family helps us have one less aspect to worry about regarding our future! Thank you to all who have already supported and to those who want to support!

Sincerely and with many thanks, 

The Russell Family
