SUPPORTING CHURCH VISITS

We visit our support team churches in order to report in-person about our ministry. We also try to visit individual supporters. During late 2023 and 2024 we were able to visit our supporting EFC’s in the US. This happened by keeping a busy schedule between our thee trips to Asia.

In 2025 we had hoped to visit our supporting EFC’s in western Canada (BC, AB, SK) in the same busy manner after our first Japan visit in April. But due to the EFCC ServeBeyond earthquake, on June 1, 2025 we transitioned from ServeBeyond to Christar Canada’s “Safe Landing Zone.” Processing this transition was time consuming and energy draining for four months. In addition, in May we had to drop to half-time ministry and salary because about half our ministry portfolio was removed in the earthquake—our ServeBeyond Asia regional leadership. We no longer had any ServeBeyond missionaries to lead or care for in Asia. It appears that during the summer and fall of 2025 we will not have the financial resources for visiting our supporting EFC’s in western Canada. Hopefully, we can resume those visits in late 2025 or early 2026.

2015_04 FEFC ME

In 2002, 2004, 2006, 2008, 2010, 2015, and 2017 we took short home assignments of only a few months. In 2020 we were scheduled for another short home assignment but due to covid and Dale’s unrelated auto-immune disease (he is doing OK now), we were only able to visit a few churches.

We try to factor travel costs for visiting our support team into our annual ministry budget. But that is not always possible when those visits require long road trips or flights.
