Sometimes
people come to us with tears in their eyes, thankful for what we have done.
(For various reasons, I have to be careful what I put in print.)
They
are very interested in what we are doing. For example, I have been hearing
lately that the work I do in the ordination process has been appreciated by
various cultural groups in Belize.
And
this is what one person said: "I am so glad you are helping us with our
ordination process." And the person's eyes moistened. Short. Succinct. To
the Point. A focus on the future.
From
my perspective, just looking into the person's eyes was overwhelming.
This
is walking together in ministry, a team effort, collaboration. Walking together
has helped us in many other ways, such as producing courses and writing
translations.
Support.
Please pray
and continue to make checks out to: "SAMS".
Put "Shaw and Julie Mudge" in the memo, to support
what we are doing.

Let us imagine
the future together.
Take a moment and imagine the value of your
partnering with us in our future mission work for the students, vocational
ministers, people in the ordination process, and the Diocese of Belize.
Take a moment and imagine the value of your
partnering with us, and the subsequent ripple effect throughout the Caribbean
and Central America, in general.
Imagine all of us making a difference
together because of your contribution to our efforts. This kind of imagining is
walking together in mission. It can be a very fruitful exercise.
Thank
you for your collaborative support, for walking together with our mission work
into the future as we make disciples who make a difference.
God bless you,
Shaw, and on behalf of Julie.
