consider partnering in sending us to the conference mentioned above


You may have read in our newsletter last week, we are preparing to head out to South Africa for the YWAM U of N Conference from September 4 – 14, 2009 in Worcester.

We have been praying and seeking the Lord for strategy on raising the finances to do just that. We would like to invite you to join us in the initiative.

If you feel led to do this – thank you! Contact us on ways you can get involved, namely HOST OR ATTEND A BBQ!!!!!
We need to purchase tickets for our trip as soon as possible. The cost of the airfare for the family is approximately $3700 USD. The anticipate cost for the entire trip is about $4970. We can send you any information you may need, but we simply ask that this cookout take place as soon as possible (we realize it’s a bit last minute, but God can pull off miracles!).

We appreciate your faithful prayers and support. We hope you are as excited about this strategy as we are! Please see page two for more information on the purpose of the conference and let us know if you have any questions.

We look forward to hearing from you very soon. Thank you for your prayerful consideration.

Blessings,

Joshua Seykora

So what do we do?

We are partnering with YWAM Perth, in Western Australia. We will be staffing the Bible School for the Nations (BSN) and the Biblical Education and Leadership Training ministry (BELT).
"The purpose of the BSN is to mobilize Bible trainers who are growing in their ability to effectively disciple nations. The school seeks to cultivate people of godly character who are deepening in their love for God, and who understand His character and how He brings about His purposes in history." (www.ywamperth.org.au/bsn/)

Our responsibilities with the school will consist of teaching the Bible and mentoring the students. We will also continue to learn a lot ourselves and be stretched as we continue to study the lessons we'll be teaching. Sarah will also be involved with media projects for the school and also for the BELT ministry.

The BELT (Biblical Eduation and Leadership Training) ministry is partnered with the Bible School, and we will be actively involved in this as well. This is the same outreach ministry that we participated with in Papua New Guinea.
The purpose of BELT is to see people groups transformed by the Word of God through empowering community and church leaders who have limited access to Biblical training.

Please see the 'related links' link above and to the right.

Sarah is part of the leadership team for the media department with YWAM Perth. She teaches on the BSN occasionally, and participates in BELT seminars, but her main focus, besides caring for Noah, is media. Medias vision is to serve the many ministries and schools of YWAM Perth. There is consistent need for printed, web and video tools to help further the Kingdom of God! Sarah is responsible for helping give feedback on the many projects that the staff are working on, as well as doing projects her self and teaching the staff from time to time. She really hopes to see Media grow and reach the many visions that God has spoken over the media ministry with YWAM Perth.

be a partner through devoted prayer

Remember when King Hezekiah prayed and God answered him, granting him 15 more years to his life (Is.38:4-6)? We remember the disciples, 'continually devoted to prayer' in Acts1:13-15. The Bible tells us to pray and present our requests to the Father.

The truth is, God hears our prayers and he does respond according to his infinite wisdom. Over the past year, it's been so evident how the Lord has answered the many prayers of our partner's in ministry. At times we've really had to 'press in' and wait on Him, but He is always faithful.

You can play and active role in this ministry by joining our devoted prayer team and seeing nations transformed. Please contact us and we'd be happy to add you to our mailing list!

become a financial partner

All of our monthly fiancial needs with YWAM are met by faith based support. YWAM does not pay us to work. Our work is technically volunteer. When we left our well paying corporate jobs over a year ago, the Lord took care of us through the cheerful giving of individuals and the church. We have faith that God will continue to provide all of our needs. He is faithful.

We are currently trusting for continued montly and quarterly partnerships (individuals and churches) to help us reach our montly budget (50% of our budget goes towards outreach field costs). If you would like to be involved please contact us. A list of our detailed budget is available upon request.

Thank you for your faithful, continued partnerships.
God Bless you as you work along side of us.
