Carissa is pregnant with our third baby, due at the end of January! In light of this news, we are ready to make changes to accommodate the growing size of our family. Over the last 4 years we have lived in a travel trailer in order to be mobile and flexible to God’s leading as we sought His direction for our ministry and the location for Camp Zula.

Now that we have settled in Northern Arizona, we are ready to move into a house without wheels that can comfortably withstand cold winters and fit a family of 5 (and a dog). Ideally, this house would be on the same property as Camp Zula, but God has not yet provided that property. We need wisdom and clarity from God on how to proceed in the coming months as we simultaneously prepare to welcome a new baby into the world and work to build Camp Zula.

To complicate things further, we have lost over $2,000 in monthly support in the last year. Although God has provided new donors recently, it has not been enough to make up for this huge loss. Due to this, I am not able to receive my full salary, which severely limits our housing options. Please pray with us that God would quickly provide new donors and financial support for us in this critical season, as well as a house for us to move into this year.

Meanwhile, Carissa is homeschooling our girls and they are thriving. Ari just turned 6 and she likes all forms of arts and crafts that she can get her hands on. Aviya is 2½ and she likes music and singing and copying everything her older sister does.

Praise God, our Host Israelis network continues to expand with now 224 hosts in 18 countries reaching 521 Israelis with the Gospel! Pray for these precious Israelis as they hear the Gospel and receive New Testaments in Hebrew, that they would come to saving faith in their Messiah Jesus.

Thank you for all your prayers and support. This ministry truly would not be possible without you.

Love,
BJ, Carissa, Ari, Aviya and Baby
