A BIG CHANGE

 

WE SHARED in previous post our plans to move to the city of Dodoma in Tanzania... In Dodoma, they were  unable to provide us with the necessary paperwork to live and work as missionaries. 

We are now preparing to move to the port city of Dar Es Salaam. Where we'll work with a local church and Christian TV Station. We asked the Senior Pastor what they needed? "The reply was, HANDS", we need your hands. 

And let the beauty of the LORD our God be upon us: and establish  thou the work of our hands upon us; yea, the work of our hands establish thou it.Psalm 90:17

They share our vision of having an orphanage & health care centers. They have a heart to reach the nearly 80,000 villages with the Gospel of Jesus Christ and education. We met them last year while on our survey visitation....introduced by one of ELM's(Everlasting Love Missions) board members.

OUR purpose remains the same. To offer, hope, help and love to the nations.
  
Please enjoy a video of our visit to Dar Es Salaam, Tanzania in the Spring of 2011

We are continuing to invite those who have a heart for our family, missions and education to partner with us in the call to Tanzania.

THE RESULTS ARE IN!

Dear friends, family, ministry partners,

We are so blessed to share the results from the 5K MOVE-A-THON, hosted by our ministry, EVERLASTING LOVE MISSIONS, on April 21, 2012. 

Last year in September, I(Deanna) had a conversation with Kendra, a Personal Life Coach and business woman at our local church. She suggested our ministry host a walkathon. She continued to show support and encouragement along the way and the results were seen in the past weekend. 

Amber, our missions care team leader, Paula a sister with a big heart, Pat, our prayer team leader, the WOL prayer team stood with us every step of the way. Vertical Student Ministries and our community came a alongside of us, and supported our effort.  Community churches joined us by "building their teams"  and the amazing amount of WOL volunteers and our kids made the event a joy for all who were able to participate. 

Friends made pledges from across the country, and gave generously because they believe in preaching the gospel to the nations. 

More than 200 people participated and over $10,000 was raised in support of Vision Tanzania. Our project to move our family to Tanzania by the end of Spring, 2012. 

We Give God ALL the glory, and we appreciate every sacrifice made and every person who supported us in anyway.   THANK YOU, ALL!

Our 21 days of Answered prayers are now concluded, however we continue to pray and thank God for every need being supplied. Our eyes our on HIM alone.

We have been invited by International Christian Center to join their team in Dodoma, Tanzania. Where we will be involved with leadership training, men's, women's, children's and college ministry. We pray we will be a blessing and that many of you will be a continued part of making that happen. 

Next Steps: Immunizations, visas, insurances, plane tickets, supplies, container, vehicle, house, household items. 

We are continuing to add prayer support, please let us know if you will pray with our family and for the nation of Tanzania! 

We are also continuing to add partners who will sow financial seed into out ministry Everlasting Love Missions, on a monthly basis. Your gifts will help us to take the next steps, and beyond. 

More importantly your gift, will allow us to partner with God in being a part of fulfilling "The Great Commission", your gift will release a financial harvest in your life, home, family, business, ministry and even reach into your future generations...your children and your children's children will be blessed. God is not mocked, whatsoever a mans sows, that will he also reap! You are blessed to be a blessing and we are blessed to be a blessing, together we are bringing in the end time harvest of souls, and on that we can place no financial value. 

You have an inheritance in Africa because you sowed a seed...You are apart of bringing change to someones life in another nation...You are making a difference!

We love you all, and pray your needs are met, your bodies are healed and your household is full of peace. God is good!

May every Kingdom resource be yours,

The Dick family

DAY 21 OF ANSWERED PRAYERS!

PSALM 133:1-3
[[A Song of degrees of David.]] Behold, how good and how pleasant [it is] for brethren to dwell together in unity!

[It is] like the precious ointment upon the head, that ran down upon the beard, [even] Aaron's beard: that went down to the skirts of his garments;

 As the dew of Hermon, [and as the dew] that descended upon the mountains of Zion: for there the LORD commanded the blessing, [even] life for evermore.

"To we as believer's will glorify our Father together in downtown Burlington NC. May your name be glorified, and lifted high. We pray as we work together in unity, that the blessing will flow to our city that will bring eternity to those that are out side of the Kingdom of God, and for those who are on the sidelines and for those who are in love with you Jesus may we draw nearer to the cross....Jesus, we thank you for all you have done and will do, may this day bring change that will continue and may you MOVE by your spirit, in signs wonders and miracles!"
Deanna/Ambassador to Africa
