Dear friends and partners,
Scripture says in Philippians that God will
supply every need we have.
Philippians 4:19
And my God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.
This is the truest of statements. God is always faithful and always provides!
I wanted to quickly write you and thank you for your prayers and giving so far this year. It has been awesome to see the Lord provide every need Hasten has through the faithful obedience of so many of you.
At the opening of the year, we held our first major outreach in Nepal. This was fully funded and immensely fruitful. In fact, I am getting pictures weekly of continuing fruit from our recent time there.
One testimony comes from an area (deep in the mountains) where we spent time preaching the Gospel and training the church. This church is one of only two Gospel witnesses sitting in the middle of countless unreached villages. While we were there, we sat with the leaders, looking across the valley at the many villages, and prayed the Lord would send laborers to reach these places.
Well, a week ago I got the pictures of the first family being baptized in this unreached people group! Now that there is one family, the church has a place to meet and gather and grow, and it will! This is how so many villages are reached in Nepal, one family at a time.
This is one of many ongoing testimonies coming from our work in Nepal. We are already in planing of three of the four new kids homes, hallelujah!
Secondly , many of you have given and prayed for our transition from Chattanooga to our new location here in the USA. Thank you! We needed to raise $25,000 to close out our lease early to save for the next season and 2024’s mission outreaches.
I’m so happy to say that through your giving and liquidation of unneeded equipment and furniture, we raised $23,000 of the $25,000. We only had to pull $2,000 from the general fund to finalize the move out! What a blessing and testimony of God’s provision! He is faithful!
Thank you for giving! Thank you for joining your faith with ours! We are currently preparing to move out of our home, so pray for us there. We have a goal of being settled in our new area by school start this year (can you believe it is already time for Daisy to start school – crazy).
Also, pray for our multiple major outreaches overseas and our working to open four homes for kids in Nepal. Also, we’ll be spending time in Mississippi with family and our church before we go to our next mission location in the USA. Pray our time there will be strengthening to us. We feel this is a time to rest and strengthen ourselves and the ministry spiritually and financially before we sprint forward the rest of the year.
We need every prayer of faith you got! Keep living up our family and the work of Hasten!
We love you!
All to Jesus,
Dustan & Darlene
