Prayer Request

I'm not really sure how many people are looking at this blog regularly, but just in case we have developed a huge following ; ) I thought I'd throw out a prayer request.  We will need a vehicle in Tanzania and have budgeted for this, but recently we found out that import taxes on vehicles have gone up making it a bit more expensive. We may have the opportunity to buy a used vehicle from missionaries already there, which would save us about $20,000. It is a quad cab truck that is not very old or used. They are selling it because it's not ideal for 3 carseats, a new need of theirs! The main issue at this point is that they, understandably, need the money sooner rather than later to pay for their new vehicle. We have been fundraising, but it is turning out to be a slower process than we would like. In order to buy the vehicle we need $21,000 pretty soon. We don't feel like we have to have a new vehicle (we don't now!) and we would like to make this move as inexpensive as possible. We know that our God owns the cattle on a thousand hills, and we ask that you pray for Him to open doors in our fundraising, for this particular need and in general. We are planning to leave mid-March and it will be here before we know it!
