February Challenge

Hey Everyone, 

As some of you may know, in order to leave for Rome by June 1, we have to be 100% fully funded/pledged.  Currently, 15% of monthly pledges have come in as well as 45% of the one-time fee.  Our first goal is to reach 25% of the monthly budget by the end of February.  In order to meet this goal we need $785/month pledged.  That means it could break down to:

·      8 Monthly Supporters: Seven at $100 and one at $85

·      5 Monthly Supporters: Two at $250, Two at $100, and one at $85. 

·      1 Monthly Supporter at $785!

Any way you slice it, we are asking that you consider, “Could God be asking me to be a monthly community member for this ministry in Rome at one (or another) of these amounts?”

If you choose to begin to give now, all current monthly donations will go toward the one-time fee.  However, you may pledge to begin giving to ITeams’ ministry in Rome once we leave. In order to outline what the finances will be going towards, below is a monthly budget breakdown.  If you have any questions please contact us at the e-mail address below.  To begin giving, or commit a pledge click HERE.

Thank you for prayerfully considering joining this journey!
