Bridging the Gap
Last night we had our Bridge to Bridge Race Fundraiser. A special thanks to the Erica Penny and Amy Smith for setting it up, getting sponsors and raising money!
It was a lot of fun and I'm amazed at the runners who came out in 90 + degree weather! What an encouragement it is to us when our friends come out to support us!
The name of the race was Bridge to Bridge. Erica designed tshirts to resemble the name of the race, as well as incorporate the Guatemala mission. Mission work is just like a bridge. It goes two ways. We are excited to help Guatemalans build safe homes and clean water filtration systems but we also know we are going to grow and learn from the Guatemalans we work with. Building bridges, building relationships, building the gap to Christ. We are so thankful for this opportunity!
Thank you for joining us on this journey,
Jack and Susie

Leap of Faith
What a busy month we have had with fundraisers! If you look at our thermometers, you will see the one time donations have jumped considerably! Thank you, friends for joining us on this journey, for stepping out in faith and making a donation. We are blessed.
We are currently in need of monthly pledges. We have had friends and family start making their pledge commitments and we are so grateful for the $850 monthly (x 2 years or more) pledges!
Would you consider donating $25 a month? $50 a month? More? Any monthly pledge adds up and is appreciated.
The monthly pledges will be used for our living expenses while we are in Guatemala. This will sustain a family of 8 for two years.
If you are interested in being a part of our journey, please contact us at townsendguat@gmail.com. We have had some amazing friends offer to host fundraisers for us, which is another awesome way to help out. There are lots of creative ways to help.

HUGE. HUMBLING.

RUN FOR GUATEMALA!!!
We have the most amazing friends in the world. Hands down. I've always thought of Barnabas in the Bible as a great friend, an encourager. Our friends are encouragers and supporters. Our friends are just like Barnabas.
Time and time again, friends are asking how they can help fundraise for our journey to Guatemala. A group of amazing Barnabases are planning our next fundraiser.
On June 13 at 6:30 PM, there will be a team of people running/walking a 1.0 mile race and a team running a 4.0 mile race in downtown Wilmington.
These amazing runners/walkers are getting friends and family to sponsor them and donating all their proceeds to our Guatemalan journey.
How can you help?
1. Run along with us and get sponsors! If you would like to run, sign up here: http://its-go-time.com/event-registration?ee=68 and also let us know so we can include you on our team. The cost of the race is $25 (4.0 miles) and $20 (1.0) plus $10 for the discounted cost of the team t-shirt. Then go out and get sponsors! Sponsorship forms will be provided so let us know as soon as you sign up and we will send you information.
2. Sponsor our team. Support an individual runner or the team as a whole!
3. As always, pray for us. Pray for a safe race for all of the runners and walkers, pray for God to be glorified and pray for this to be a successful fundraiser.
4. Buy a t-shirt! For non-runners the t-shirt is $20. Shipping for out of the area buyers is $3 for 1-3 shirts and free shipping on orders of 4 or more shirts. Place your order on the website below and send payment to PayPal townsend164@bellsouth.net. http://www.customink.com/signup/3217624v

How can this possibly work?
We copied this from a friend who shared our blog on their Facebook wall...
$7 a day...
If you haven't heard by now, the Townsend's are beginning a mission to Guatemala. We are asking people to partner with them by putting aside $7 per day.
Why seven? Let's have fun with this. Seven is a significant number in the Bible (signifies completion, perfection, fullness) and $7 a day would add up quickly! If twenty people donate $7 a day, the Townsend family would be set with their monthly costs!
With the "fullness" of your support, the Townsend family would be able to move forward on this path. We understand that it will happen in His "perfect" timing. Therefore, their departure is dependent upon full funding.
If you'd like to help, you can set up your monthly contribution ($7x30 days =$210 a month) or the amount the Lord leads you to donate at:
