Dear Missions Partner,

 

First, we want to thank you so much for your support. We cannot express in words how much your participation in our lives means to us as we seek to serve God through being sent on missions. 

 

It is with heavy hearts that we must report to you, out of our responsibility to you as our partner, a change in our situation. Below is a letter explaining the update; please read it and join us in prayer. Please pause and proceed to read that letter now before continuing. 

 

We understand this is sudden, and we know we would wish it were any other way. We know this is not a surprise to God, and that His plan is greater than ours.

 

We want to commit this to you now; we are not giving up on being sent as missionaries. We will be taking stock, praying diligently, and seeking opportunities to glorify God by using the ways He has made us to serve Him as missionaries. We can commit to you that we are already praying over next steps and potential opportunities, which we hope to share with you in the near future as appropriate.

 

As for the funding we have raised, know that we have protected it and are stewarding it well. Nothing undue has happened to it. It is being held in trust at a partnering church 501 (c) (3); the charitable contribution is preserved. First, we ask that you stop giving to White Horse Missions on our behalf at this time. Second, if you have supported us financially, we ask that you prayerfully consider continuing to partner with us in the near future. All the missionary opportunities we are presently praying through all still involve fundraising in some capacity. But if you would like the money you have given to be used differently, please reach out to us as soon as you are able. We will respect your choice regardless. 

 

Thank you for your partnership with us. We do not see this as the end of the road, just a speed bump. We are still going on missions and still trusting God. Please continue to partner with us in prayer as we seek what’s next.

 

With love,

Gideon, Emma, and Laurence Owens

Hey everyone, this month we have a lot of exciting news to share!


To start with some praises, we had to the chance to begin the process to obtain our visa! It is going well and is expected to keep us on track for next year. Also, we have continued to have the opportunity to attend some fundraising meetings to help us raise support. God is continuing to open doors for us that we could not have opened ourselves.


As for some prayer requests, the major one is that Gideon will be heading down to Honduras for a week this month to get some thing ready for next year. He is going to get to visit the language school we are planning on attending and he will get to look at some options for areas to live in when we move. These are some big steps, so we ask for your prayer as Gideon seeks to wisely find out what the best options will be and to use his time there well.


Please also be praying as we are almost at the place where we can nail down a definitive start date for our missions work next year. We are only waiting to hear back on a few more key details before we announce the planned departure date. Please be praying for us through this.


Please also be praying for us as we seek to spend our remaining time here well and for the glory of God.


As always, thank you for keeping up with us in prayer! If you know of anyone in your sphere of influence who would be willing to support us through prayer and/or financial support, please spread the word for us!


Blessings,

-Gideon and Emma
