November Update

Saturday, November 29th, 2008

Hey Everyone!

Here is the short version of our update. Please click here to see the detailed version.

  • We were accepted to Adventive Cross Cultural Initiatives or ACCI!
  • We can now receive funds. You can send us money through ACCI and they will issue you a tax-deductible receipt. Checks can be made out to ACCI or Adventive. Our names cannot appear anywhere on the check or ACCI cannot issue a tax-deductible receipt to you. Simply attach a note stating it is for Mike and Lindy Waskoksy. There is also a form attached  to this link that you can print off and send with the check.
  • You can also donate online at www.adventive.ca. Just click the “Donate Now (US)” link on the left hand side of the page and enter the amount in either the monthly support area or one-time gift area.
  • A missionary in Ecuador offered to help us get missionary visas, which lasts 2 years. This is a huge praise for us!

Prayer Requests:

  • Tristen was a little underweight at his last doctor appointment. It is nothing serious. He just needs to eat more becasue he is so active.
  • Our lease runs out in February and we are deciding if we should renew our lease or if we should move somewhere else where it is easier to do a month-by-month lease.

Thank you so much for all your support, encouragement, and love!!
Mike, Lindy and Tristen

October Update

Sunday, November 9th, 2008

Hey Everyone,

Here’s the brief version of our update: You can click here for the longer version.

  • Our plans for Ecuador are starting to come together.
  • We have applied to a mission called Adventive Cross Cultural Initiatives. We have had a phone conference with the director of the mission and they love our “ministry plans”. We are waiting for our final acceptance.
  • We have been figuring out what viasa to get once in Ecuador. We would like to get permanent residence visas, which will save us a lot of time in the future. Please pray with us about this.
  • We have been loving teaching the fifth and sixth graders. They are so wonderful and really want to know the Lord.
  • Tristen has been learning to crawl and walk. He now says “ma ma, ba ba, and da da.” We put new pictures and a cute video of him up on our website.

Thank you so much for taking your time to read our newsletter. We are also so grateful for the encouraging messages. We could not do this without you guys!

God’s richest blessings,
The Waskoskys
