Pray For Us... This is an important time for us. We are getting ready for our baby girl to be born, and at the same time we are preparing to leave for Montana in September. There is a lot of preparation for both! While we are getting ready for these changes we are still going to school full time. We don't want to get so caught up in what's to come that we forget about what still needs attention today.
Preparing for baby... So many of you have given us so many wonderful things for little Lily! Thank you so much. We even have diapers that we expect will last us at least part of the way into our outreach! You guys are great! As many of you know this hasn't been the easiest pregnancy, but we strongly believe that God has a HUGE plan for our little girl, and that these challenges of the past eight months have just been affirming that! We don't know what to expect as far as who this little person will be, or what it will be like to be parents, but we are thrilled and so thankful!
Preparing for our trip... This is big! We have a lot to do. We are working on our support letter to raise support in fiances and prayer, and also to keep you all updated on what we are up to. We have some fundraising ideas, that need to be put into action, and we have a million little details to work out before we go. How can you help? Pray! We need prayer.
We do need financial support... but we still need prayer. We want to know that there are people covering our family with prayer as we sent out to do this. For this trip we need to raise around $13000.00. This amount may change. It covers our room and bored, our traveling expenses, and our personal needs... like wipes and shampoo.
If you feel that God is calling you... to support us, you want to help with fundraising, or you want to let us know that you are praying then please feel free to email us. It is always encouraging to know that we have people behind us. We'd love to hear from you.
About Me
- Robert and Jenny
- We are the Barbers! There are now three of us! We welcomed our little Lily in the world on May 4th, 2010! Redding is our home, but we will be leaving for a time to do missions through YWAM Montana. This has been on our hearts since before we were married, and we finally feel the time is right to step out in faith and boldness and go where ever God leads our family. We are normal people. We are flawed like everyone else. We love Jesus and know that through his holiness and perfection he can and will use us to be his hands and feet. This is our most basic desire. To be used by God. To make sure those around us feel his love. On our own we know that we are completely incapable of any of this, that's why we are pursuing God. We don't want to be famous; we don't want to be recognized. We just want to love people and help SERVE those in need, by jumping into the opportunities God presents.
