  • Yes, Lord.

    I am so excited about moving to Guatemala. I am so NOT excited about fundraising again. It wouldn’t be NEAR as bad if we hadn’t just ended 24 months of fundraising for our adoption, but we did.

    In some ways I can see how GOD the timing is, because seeing $30,000 come from little, medium, and big size gifts from all over did amazing things for our faith. But the human side of me wants to tuck my tail between my legs and say, “Yes, the Davis family is asking for money again.”

    I know in my heart that this is what church is. We are a body. It takes all of us. I know that He has specific people that He is calling to support us just as He has specifically called us to be the ones to go. I am so thankful that the only responsibility Blake and I have is to share our hearts. I am thankful that the outcome is God’s responsibility.

    We have taken this step of faith because we are burdened for third world nations.
    And because we love American teenagers and want to see them become passionate for the nations.
    And because He has given us a love for Guatemala’s families, Guatemala’s widows, Guatemala’s children, Guatemala’s sick, Guatemala’s battered women, and Guatemala’s lost.

    If God has given you a burden for Guatemala, or for the Spanish speaking people of Central American, or for the extreme impoverished, would you ask the Lord if He might be calling you to be part of our support? There is no pressure from us. We know there are so many worthy causes and great needs. All we are asking is for you to ask God. And when you think of us, please pray for us. We need more than finances. We need courage, wisdom, protection, and encouragement.

    As time goes on, I will post updates about our financial needs. At this point we have only one need of $200 to finish up the amount we need for our down payment of the missionary training school we will go to in February.

  •   So exciting.  Just curious if you have read “Love You More” by Jennifer Grant — It is about her adoption from Guatemala.  If you have not I’d love to send it to you.  I always pass along my books.  If you are interested pm your address.  Will continue to pray for you as you prepare for this next chapter in your life.

  • Wow what an exciting journey of Faith! Will be praying for you all and following your blog more closely!
