Hello Friends,
We are so so excited about this year, 2026!
One of our favorite Scriptures in “Man Makes His Plans, but GOD GUIDES OUR STEPS!” We love this scripture as we have seen so many times in the past 44 years since we took those first steps as Foreign Missionaries in 1982, we have seen countless times where God guided us.
So many times we thought we were going to do one thing and God lead us to do another.
So many times we had “our plan” and God had another plan.
So many times we thought things were going “all wrong” and God was right in the middle of it with His Plan.
So many times, so many times, so many times. We could say this a 100 times. But it’s only when we look back on things that we see the hand of God in “our plans”.
So as we enter these first days, week and months of 2026, we can’t help but be excited about the year.
We continue to make plans to see at least SEVEN new churches started in Eastern Europe this year. We invest $4000 in each of these new churches. We have the funds for TWO of them already. Can you prayerfully consider helping with one or more the the last FIVE of these churches.
They will be started in Poland and Slovenia and Bulgaria and possibly Albania.
We first started out as missionaries and just a very possibly “naive couple” in 1982 with some simple faith when we moved overseas. Now 44 years later we still have some of the simple faith to trust God in all we do.
In the coming weeks I will once again be in Hungary and Slovenia, meeting with leaders, making plans to start more churches and believe that “man makes his plans BUT GOD GUIDES OUR STEPES.
Thank you for helping us do all we do.
So excited about 2026,
Jim and Brenda
