What a busy but blessed last few months! We first off want to thank you all for your prayers and support. We would not be able to draw closer each month to our goal without you. As we look back over the spring and early summer we are continuously encouraged by all of the great events, churches, and people we have been able to encounter. At the end of April, we had our Northern California-Nevada District Council and had a great time reconnecting with those we had gotten to know over the past year and connecting with some new friends. It was such a refreshing time.

In May we headed out across the country from California to West Virginia, where we had the opportunity to be at Appalachian District Council. We were once again blessed by what God is doing in the local churches in these districts. While on the East coast we were able to be part of a number of services and have meetings throughout WV, Virginia, Maryland, and even Florida. Before we left WV, we got to be with Ashley’s home church, where we were presented with the funds they had raised from making and selling Easter candy, which was an extravagant blessing of $20,000! This helped us to get to over 50% of our cash budget, and we have also reached over 50% of our monthly support. We thank you all for your help to reach this 50% plus mark on our itineration journey.

As we look ahead, the next milestone we are praying to hit before the end of summer is 75% of our monthly budget. We ask you to continue to pray along with us that God will give us favor with churches and individuals. Once again, thank you all for you support and prayers; we are greatly appreciative to each and every one of you. We know that we cannot do this without you!

So All Can Hear,
Jose, Ashley, Isaac, and Olivia Talavera
