Dear Ministry Partners,
It’s time for an update of facts and photos.
Below you will find our current ministry and family happenings. Prepare to be encouraged!
Ministry:
May – Our Montana Leadership teams decided to include Cambodia as a “target nation” (a nation or people group that we strategically focus our resources and efforts toward), along with the 5 we already have (India, Nepal, Taiwan, Thailand, Ukraine). We have personally served in all these nations and it is our JOY to have the whole campus taking on Cambodia!
June thru’ October – Jeremy has been asked to develop and run a leadership training series (called “CORE”) at our local church. Our Pastor is asking everyone serving in any leadership capacity to attend. This allows Jeremy to serve in the church in his area of gifting: discipleship and leadership training.
CORE Theology | CORE Identity | CORE Action
June Thru October – 3 EQUIP Programs in 3 regions
1. Another Equip (leadership training program) starts here in Lakeside in 10 days!
2. Equip in Ukraine, starts in July. Despite the civil unrest, training, evangelism and discipleship continue.
3. Equip in Cambodia, starts in September. This will be the third Equip run in Cambodia.

House Update:
Jeremy & I will celebrate our anniversary this Saturday the 21st , so we decided to get a new house to celebrate 😉 Here is a house update.
We are now in the “finishing” stage and should be moving in the week of July 14! The fighting for the toilet will soon come to an end! Thanks to all of you who have given in time, and sponsoring portions of the project. Your gifts are making it happen! Interestingly, when our family moves in, we will immediately have guests in the guest room too! Awesome.
CURRENT NEEDS: As the project finishes up…so does the funding…If God would lead you to give towards items not yet covered….we would be grateful!
- Carpet (bonus room): We have $5560; still need $1260
- Lighting: projected need of $1500
- Closet hardware: This one caught us by surprise $1500
- Bathroom accessories: $500
- Grass, soil and seed: An unexpected need. We have $1200; still need $800 more to be sown 🙂
As you know, the whole project is a God story and we continue to put our trust in Him! As we are working hard on everything we can, we are confident He will provide the rest. We have so many stories already of people giving, donating materials or seriously discounting them for us. Others coming over and working, as well as completing major [specialized] construction jobs. Various tradesmen donating time, and good cheer! It seems that as long as Jeremy promises not to “help”, they are willing to do the professional job themselves 🙂
Thank you for your part in our ministry. Together, we are reaching the world for Jesus, and equipping others to do the same!
Love,
Jeremy, Molly, Samuel, Joel & Eden
