URGENT CALL FOR HELP!!!

Posted in Prayer Concerns with tags , , , , on February 1, 2008 by filerofish

A little over a year ago, we began the process of purchasing property nextdoor to the church building in Ensenada, Mexico. This we did in faith, with the hope of expanding the tiny property on which a make-shift church building sits The owner was gracious enough give us a four year payment plan, thus dividing the $60k total into four payments of $15k each. God provided for the first $15k payment, and the next one was due last August.

Since the deadline has come and gone, we have been given a “grace” period until the end of February. At first, we were sure that we would be able to make the second payment based on a faith promise from a supporting church. Evidently they were unable to meet their goal. What all this translates to is that we are facing the very real possibility of loosing it all unless God performs a last-minute miracle.

We can’t afford to loose the property, because it serves the local church as a dinning hall, parsonage, and extra classroom. Plus we host visiting missions’ teams and our family is also using at for temporary living accommodations.

Please, please, pray for for a miracle! '(Fellowship Meal Outside

Looking for a Website Solution!

Working at the computer

Until we can afford a permanent website, this will be our home for a while. I had been working with Homestead.com because it was easy to use, but they have become very expensive and the time has come to move on to a more viable solution. I would love to hear your suggestions, so feel free to register your comments anytime. I realize there thousands of servers, hosts, etc. Finding the right one for our needs could be a challenge and a half. To make things easier, I have included a few priorities to keep in mind:

  • Capacity for several domain names
  • Large disk space (in order to upload audio and video)
  • Ease of use
  • Good support
  • Good bandwidth
  • Podcasting availability
  • Best pricing
  • Family safe

I have taken a look at a few already, such as Bravenet, Monster, etc. They all seem to offer different things that we need and/or could use, but I have not found one that “speaks” to me yet (if you know what I mean). I want to make the best move possible to maximize all available resources.

Please post your comments now!

Yours 4 Him,
