Support Effort So Far

Written by Kevin No Comments Yet

We’ve been pointing CONSTANTjourney readers to our support raising efforts in a couple of places (link, link, link, link) recently (and a couple of offline places as well) and so we wanted to make sure we’re giving you updates on our progress so far. We currently have a remaining need of $913 in monthly support. That means that since our initial efforts began, people have partnered with us in additional ways, to the tune of about $200 a month. And we are humbled.

We have this confidence that it’s going to work out, that Canvas will have the resources it needs to continue the amazing efforts that have already begun in B’ham. We’ve come so far, we have no reason to worry about this at all.

But then I recall all you have done, O Lord; I remember your wonderful deeds of long ago. They are constantly in my thoughts. I cannot stop thinking about your mighty works. O God, your ways are holy. Is there any god as mighty as you? (Psalm 77:11-13 NLT)

But it will take some effort and hard work to communicate the passion we have for the work we’re a part of. And it will take faithful people, merging their life’s journey with this one, stepping up and saying that they believe in what they see God doing here. It might even take you. We’ve just got to keep asking.

If you feel that this journey, this CONSTANTjourney is something you’d like to be a part of, then please take a moment to let us know: Click here to let us know you want to commit support in some way, financial, encouragement, or anything else. Here are a few more links that might help you along your way:

However you want to join with this journey, one thing is for sure: you can pray. We are so blessed to know that people care. That they want to see Canvas succeed. That they want to see students cared for - really cared for and loved so that they might ask us why we love them so much.

Thank you for being a part of this journey. If you’re not yet a part of the support base, please consider it. If you are, we continue to be in awe of your faithfulness to make this happen. We cannot say thank you enough.

Photos of Support

Written by Kevin No Comments Yet

I’ve recent gotten a first book of English landscape photography printed featuring various locations throughout England. And, Hey! says I. What if I made them available for purchase as a way to support our work? For the sake of thinking it through, it could work this way:

  • We could place a link to an online store throughout CONSTANTjourney.com that allows a visitor to click through and purchase the book with a credit card, check or directly from their bank account (via Paypal).
  • Once the visitor has gone through the simple steps of purchasing a book, we order one on their behalf and it ships directly to their home.

Easy, huh? What do you think? Please let us know, it will really help us. Take a second to vote on this poll:

Thanks for your feedback! Stay tuned; we’ll see how this goes once we get some opinions on the matter

July and August Prayer Calendar

Written by Kevin No Comments Yet

We’ve done it. We’ve finally gotten our act together. You’ve gone two months without a prayer calendar and we didn’t want you to go any longer. We know that you’ve still been praying (right?), but isn’t it nice to have a little direction?

As always, we’re grateful to know that we’ve got people praying with and for us as we’re making our way through all of this CONSTANTjourney stuff. We can’t say thank you enough. And if there’s a way that we can be praying for and supporting you, please let us know!

So, without further delay, use your supporter username and password (check your latest paper newsletter if you can’t remember) to log into the Prayer Calendar page. From there, just download the month you’re interested in and you’re off.
