Dear Pastor,
       I’m writing this letter in regards to the Missionary Projects Offering this month. When Brother Joyce shared with me the cost to rent a home in Ouagadougou six years ago, it was very reasonable. However, when he tried to secure a home to rent three years later it had doubled. Since then rentable homes have continued to rise.
       In discussing this issue with Brother Joyce we believe acquiring permanent housing is a necessity. If Brother Joyce doesn’t find something permanent, the time could come when most of his missionary income would go primarily for housing just to live on the mission field. Not only is this a cost issue but a permanent home will also provide more family stability as well as stability in the community.
        Because of this Pastor, we are asking if you would make it a matter of prayer and consider the Joyce family in the Missionary Housing Project? If you can have part in this offering, please include their number H-1015-1. Thank you so much for considering their need.
