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

Good morning prayer partners. As we enter into this new month, we want to praise God for all that He has done in helping us prepare to be sent on missions. Firstly, we have had so many succesful fundraising meetings in the last few weeks. God is providing graciously and we draw ever closer to being fully funded. At this point, as we understand it, we can say that we are 2/3 funded with recurring monthly giving. We praise God for this, and want to thank all of you reading this who are supporting us either with recurring giving or one time gifts for your generosity in joining God in what He is doing in Central America. We also want to praise God because we still have plenty of meetings schedueled for the upcoming month and beyond, so we are prayerfully hopeful that fundraising will continue onwards at a good pace. We also want to praise God for our health and family. We are so happy to watch Laurence grow up and begin his first attempts at standing and walking. Please join us in praising God for His love and our family.


As for prayer requests, please keep us in mind as we have some very important non-fundraising meetings this month as well with partners and churches. These will be insturmental in hammering down the next steps of our plan to be sent in the comming future. Pray for us to have wisdom, thankfullness, paitence, perserverance, and grace as we conduct these meetings. We know that no matter what, God's plan is were we want to reside. Also continue to pray for us as we continue to fundraise so that we can reach our goal soon.


Thank you,

Gideon and Emma Owens
