We have been praying since
deciding to become full-time missionaries in Nauta, Peru that we would need to
attend a language school so that we could learn the Spanish language. We have now
been on the field for over two and a half years. Last year we attended language
school for a month. Although that helped, we also knew that eventually, we
would need to return to complete the full six-month course.
At times, it has been
incredibly frustrating and scary to be living here with my family and not
knowing the language well. We have often prayed about this and felt God telling
us to trust Him, and when the time was right, He would open the path for
learning the language. It was through this obedience to God that He performed
many miracles in our lives. There were plenty of times when we would cry out to
God in frustration because we had no clue as to how we were going to get
something done without speaking the language. It was always in these times that
God would send somebody, just the right somebody, to help us complete the task.
We don’t need to know the
reason why God hasn’t allowed us the time or finances to go to language school.
What we do know is that He has a plan and His plan is greater than our plan.
God has now made it clear to
us that to deepen relationships and further continue God’s work here in the
jungle we must gain a deeper knowledge of the Spanish language. We would like
to start school in October of this year. The cost for us to attend language
school is $15,000.00. Like we said earlier God has made it obvious to us and is
telling us to take this next step, to put the burden of the finances on Him and
that He will put the desire in people’s hearts to support us with this next
step. If you feel led to financially support this, please indicate that the
donation is for "McGee language school". If you would like to make an
online donation, you can visit our blog at http://junglemaster.blogspot.com and use the donate buttons.
Thanks for continuing to
support us with your prayers and financial support.
In Christ’s love,
Your missionaries the McGees
