Fall in Heber City/Park City is BEAUTIFUL this time of year. We are constantly reminded of God’s goodness and grace, both in what we see outside and in the work He continues in our lives. We want to thank you again for your ongoing love and support!
Ministry Update
Since our last update, we have shared the vision for Thailand in California, Missouri, Arkansas and Utah…we have been busy! The churches we have shared with have been so gracious to us. At this time, there are 3 churches that have verbally committed, and 3 more that are considering support. God is so good!
Kroger Reloadable Grocery Cards
Monthly support is still our greatest need. There is a new way that friends can partner with us financially at no extra cost…through buying gas and grocery shopping at Kroger stores!
(aka Smith’s Food & Drug, Ralph’s, Food4Less, Dillons, Fred Meyer, QFC, Kroger, Turkey Hill, etc.).
How it works:
1. Receive a reloadable Kroger card from us (0.00 balance)
2. Pre-load your Kroger card (w/credit card, debit, cash @ customer service)
3. Shop!
4. Pay for your groceries/gas with your Kroger card.
5. 5% goes to our mission support!
For example, if someone commits to spending $400.00 a month on groceries/gas, $20.00 would then go toward our monthly support!
We are really excited about the opportunity. Please email Jenn (mrs.jenn.byers@gmail.com) or just "reply" to this email if you are interested or have questions. Click here to find a Kroger store near your zip code.
Monthly Support Report
We are currently around 33% of our pledged monthly support. This has postponed our departure to Thailand to sometime in 2013. One of our biggest challenges with deputation has been our lack of time. We both have jobs (Jenn part time) and take turns caring for Moriah. We have been praying that God would open the door for us to live in cheaper housing and for Jenn to work less.
He heard our prayer…moving!
We are moving to Ephraim, Utah, the city that we met in back in 2004. Jason was hired at a boys’ home in a town nearby, and the staff at the “The Rock” is graciously allowing us to rent the upstairs for a very low amount. Praise God for this amazing answer to prayer. This will free us up to focus on Thailand and sharing our vision.
Moriah update
As some of you already know, at about 2 months old, Moriah started developing a hemangioma (benign, vascular tumor) that grew in her nasal cavity. We have some GREAT news! At her last appointment, the doctor decided that she does not need to wear her glasses at this time as her eye is doing very well! Thank you for all your prayers!
Moriah is now 20 months and a blond, curly top. She calls every prince she sees on t.v. “Daddy”, loves bananas, her baby dolls, dresses, “talking” on the "foo" (phone), and noodles of any kind (called “loo loo”).
Prayer requests
-Monthly supporters
-Personal family finances
-The missionary families in Northeast Thailand, that they would be encouraged in their work and not give up on the task
-Thailand and its unreached provinces. Click here to view the Christian presence map. We will probably end up in Khon Kaen, Kalasin or Sakon Nakhon
Please let us know how we can be praying for you!
-Jason, Jenn and Moriah
