Family and Friends,



Hello from New Zealand! In this letter, we want to ask for your prayers and consideration more urgently for Mario and Stanley, the Kenyan boys who, God willing, will be here with us in New Zealand in a couple weeks!



MARIO & STANLEY: As many of you know, we had quite a bit of trouble with Mario’s passport. However, God has poured out miraculous blessings one after the other … when it should have been a very difficult and long process to get a new Kenyan ID, a new birth certificate and a passport … it all happened within 2 weeks! Mario and Stanley both have their passports which are now in South Africa along with their visa applications which are being processed! We are praying and hoping that they will be in New Zealand before the end of February! Please pray with us that this process will be quick and we can get them started in school.



It is such a blessing that Capernwray has offered Mario and Stanley free schooling but we need to pay for their flights and spending money while here. This is something that we would like to ask you to pray for as well as ask God if this is something that you would be willing to give towards. The flights will cost approx. $4000.00 and we are estimating approx. $50.00/month for each boys’ spending money, therefore, $4400.00 in total. Because there was quite a hold up with Mario’s documents and we weren’t sure if they would be able to come, we did not want to ask for this specific request. Now that this is realistic and we are preparing for them to arrive, we are seeking your assistance.



If you would like to make a pledge of money to sponsor/support these two boys, would you let us know. Because we want to have full confirmation that they received their visa’s and are coming to school before you actually send money, please follow the following process:



1. Email to Jesse or Jen the amount you would like to give

2. When we hear that the visa’s are approved we will let you know and you can mail your cheque to:

Gaylord Evangelical Free Church
Attn: Debbie Harlukowicz/ Kenya
P.O. Box 493
Gaylord, MI 49734



Thank-you so much for your prayers and taking the time to read this.

God bless you,

Jesse and Jen Hein
