Good News!
Recently, we were alerted by our sending agency that all of our support has come in! We were stunned--all three of us had expected to be raising support through much of the summer. Now that we've met our financial goal, some have told us that they didn't expect us to reach it--they had half-expected only one or two of us to be financially able to go. We know that this large sum of money bears testimony not to our fund-raising abilities (hardly!), but to God's grace, manifested in the Christ-exalting, nations-seeking generosity of His Church.
Any extra money that is given will be used as a contingency fund and for extra ministry expenses (to bless students and their families) during our time in Cameroon. We hope to continue to raise prayer-support for our trip. The supplying of our finances doesn't change our need for God's help.
Thank you all for your prayers and your support. We pray that we are found faithful stewards.

Wow - thank you guys for sharing the exciting news! While your fundraising letter was clear, to the point, and enjoyable to read, I join you in giving thanks to the Father for his provision.
Know that you guys remain in our prayers.
Hmm. I guess this means I will really need to come to Cameroon then. Well. At least it's another stamp in my passport and a potential trip to France! And don't worry JT, we'll bring candy :)
Hi Guys,
I rejoice with you in this good news!
It will be wonderfully interesting to follow your ministry in Cameroon.
Blessings,
Char
It is so exciting to see how God provided in such a short time! God is SO good!
I'm praying for "you guys" as you prepare for your trip.
