Support
Like all people we are not islands, and these things we are trying to do are not achieved by individuals acting alone, but by groups of people acting together. We need and appreciate the support of our family, church and friends in this project.
Moral Support
Encourage us along the way (if not out the door!) We need it! Everything is changing for us at the moment. We are under immense emotional strain as we prepare to leave. We are also likely to have ups and downs during our year out there, and when we return, we will need your friendship and support more than ever as we re-enter.
We also ask for encouragement for our extended family at this time as the thought of the whole family being so far away, for so long in a strange environment, can be daunting.
Spiritual Support
We believe prayer changes things. We also believe our success, welfare, and happiness comes from God. So pray for us, ask for God's grace, mercy and blessing to be on us at all times.
Financial Support
Due to Visa restrictions all of our support needs to come from outside South Africa .
Living costs are going to be £1000.00 per month for the family. Getting there and back is likely to be another £3000.00
Some of these costs are already covered while other needs are outstanding.
If you feel you would like to help us, please contact New Life Church Congleton for details on how to support us.
Logistical Support
There are a number of practical things people can do, and problems you can solve that would that will help us out immensely

Constant Communication
We will be in contact online and via email. We would love for you to keep in touch and tell us what is happening with you.
We want to maintain contact and nurture existing friendships when we are out in Port Elizabeth so please help us do this!
Coming Home
It is going to be as much if not more of a culture shock as going. Currently we have no firm plans in place or opportunities lined up. We are struck with untold possibilities of what may happen after this year, but are also struggling with fear as to what might not happen. Please pray for us as we seek to follow God’s next step for our family.
