Hello once again!

If you’ve been following our posts and newsletters, then you’re aware that we’ll soon be back in Argentina, serving at the Bible school in the city of Córdoba. As we prepare for our return, our plans include shipping a 20’ container by ocean to Argentina. This larger capacity will make it possible for us to bring into the country items impossible to carry with us on the plane.

Because of this opportunity, we’d like share some of our pressing needs at the Bible school. Perhaps, you or your church might be able to donate items. Since we only have a couple weeks to make this happen, please get in touch with us ASAP by phone or email. The deadline for items will be Monday, July 20th.

Urgent Items Needed:

• Computers for the school library (Win/Mac, 1GHz or better)
• Used computer monitors in working condition (17” preferred)
• Any hand tools, lawn mowers or garden equipment would be extremely helpful as we have 9+ acres of land to maintain on campus.
• Digital camera for taking photographs on campus and for publications
• Bed sheets/blankets in good condition (Single, Twin or Queen)
• Personal toiletry items for our students (soap, shampoo, personal hygiene products, etc.)
• School supplies (pens, pencils, etc.)

Thank you so much!

Hello Friends,

We’ve all seen it in movies and TV programs... the kids asking their parents “Are we there yet?” We feel that way sometimes with our Heavenly Father...”are we there yet?” Are we closer to getting our budget raised so we may continue serving in Argentina? The good news is yes, just about there!

As of the beginning of July, we are looking at about $100 more in monthly commitments in order to have a strong missions budget for our next 4 years of service in Argentina. If your church would like to partner with us and help make our return more speedily, please visit out “Support” page for more information.

We are awaiting final word from our organization for the “green light” to purchase our airline tickets and to finalize the planning for our return. At this moment, it seems that mid-August would be a good timeline for us to consider. If you haven’t read our most current newsletter, we’d invite you to do so. In it you’ll find lots of information about our current needs and adventures.

We’ll keep you posted!

Stephen

Friends,

Just a note to remind you that there are a number ways we can stay connected while we are in the US or in Argentina. Here are some of your options:

FaceBook

• Visit our FB page here. If you add me as a friend, be sure to write me a note so I know where we ran into each other.

Skype

• Skype has made missionary life so much easier by being able to stay in contact through chat and video conferences with friends and family. You may search for us on Skype by our username which is “stephen.wallace”.

Email

• If you would like to write us an email, you can do so at this address: “stephen.wallace[at]agmd.org”. Be sure to change the [at] portion. Just a way to keep back spammers.

We would encourage you to visit our “Contact Us” page which has all of the ways you can easily stay in touch with Sonia and I.

Blessings,

Stephen
