June 2007
Last Monday – on June 18th, we became home owners
again.
Next
Monday, on July 2nd, I am flying to Costa Rica. AIM asked
me to be the project manager for a
|
|
|
short
term ministry team that is scheduled to go to Las
Juntas
de Avangares, Costa Rica. The short term ministry
team from a Destin, Florida United Methodist Church
includes 13 college age young people and the couple
who are this church’s youth pastors. They will
arrive in Costa Rica on July 4th. I am leaving for
Costa Rica two days before the team to do setup. We
are scheduled to return to the U.S on July 12th .
Some of the ministry activities that this team is
going to be involved include prayer walks, open air
children’s activities and meetings, evangelistic
outreaches, sports and painting church rooms. Las
Juntas de Avangares on the map to the left is located
right under the v of Monteverde. Monteverde is located
on the Pacific Ocean side – near the Gulf of
Nicoya.

Thank you very much for your prayers for Don and Connie. In
only about two months, about 47% of the amount that AIM has
budgeted for them to raise as their monthly support has been
pledged. Even though Don and Connie have not yet been able
to go on salary with AIM, they have been able the past couple
of weeks to observe the training that AIM does for their Ambassador
program. Don will begin as AIM’s Ambassador program
director just as soon as he is able to go on salary with AIM
– which is when he and Connie have their budgeted monthly
support pledged. If you would like to help Don and Connie
with a monthly pledge, please use the new mailing address
where AIM would like donations sent to which is:
Adventures
In Missions, Inc.
P.O. Box 534470
Atlanta, GA 30353-4470
(please include a note stating that your gift is for Don and
Connie Rock)
If you would like to help us with a special gift or if you
would like to begin to support us monthly, please use the
above address as well. Thank you.

We
are enjoying getting to know the September 2007 World
Race participants. While we were in Delaware earlier
this month, we met up with two of the young ladies
– Traci and Sarah, who are planning to go on
the upcoming September 2007 World Race. Sarah –
who is standing next to Nancy, grew up and lives within
blocks of where Nancy once lived in Wilmington, Delaware
with her parents. If you would like to know more about
the upcoming World Race or if you would like to track
the two World Races that are ongoing, go to AIM’s
website which is: www.adventures.org

We
continue to be very grateful for your prayers. This past week
was exhausting. We moved not only our stuff from the apartment
where we were living, we moved Don and Connie’s things
to our place from the storage area where they had their things
stored. Thank you again for everything! We are very grateful
for your desire to partner with us through your prayers, thoughts,
and support.
Sincerely,
Gary and Nancy Lengkeek
