Youth with a Mission Worldwide
LET'S GET THROUGH
THIS YEAR TOGETHER!
THIS YEAR TOGETHER!
...and we are into 2021, not much has changed or a lot has depending on our perspective for sure! Either way let us enter this new year with hope and assurance the Father is at work, has not forsaken us, and invites us close to his presence and desires for good on the earth!
What are the desires we believe He has for us to walk in here this year?
-The first thing is to finalize the purchase of the new land that will be the location of the Community Center Clinic and Community Development. (Scroll down to hear Amidu's story and an example of what this land will mean to the region)
-Food distribution and Medical aid will also be a primary focus until at least May 2021. We have been experiencing heavy heavy rains this season which, brings with it ruined crops, high malaria, and now the unknown with Covid numbers growing daily here
-Discipleship is always a front line priority and 'Call' on our lives here. The groups in this season are really growing among the Yawo and the Makua, and we are navigating the needs in this processs. Also, two of our 1st generation disciples are returning from their YWAM DTS in a day or two and will be returning with new vision for their own 'Calls' to fulfill discipleship in their own lives.
***If you are specifically interested in partnering with these specific ministries and projects they are apart of the GENNARI MISSION CAPITAL FUND; which you can find the details for below***
CURRENT CAPITAL FUND MINISTRIES
MERCY CARE
ELDERLY, WIDOWS, AND CHILDREN -
Needing medical assistance, food, transport, and shelter
***The last 6 months focus has been shelter/housting
***The next 6 months up to April 2021 harvest the focus will be medication for Malaria and food
PALLIATIVE CARE-
For those needing long term medical assistance at home with chronic disease or facing end of life situations
DISCIPLESHIP
MATTHEW 28 MINISTRY -
Discipleship group needs: bibles, audio bibles, transport resources, Discipleship Training funds, continuing education, and any other biblical resources
Praise God! After 5 years our monthly support is getting ever closer to the %100 mark. By God's grace alone and your timely help we have been able to navigate the waters! This year we have two areas of celebration already. Home school curriculum and our Annual Moz Residencies have been saved up or provided for! Amazing!
It appears the two big needs this next 6-8 months will be our medical insurance (Due in a week) and our Malaron personal supply! Malaron is the medication we take daily to ward off Malaria and thankfully we have not had to experience for 3 years now. It is more important than ever now as COVID is also making it's way into the villages. Any help in these two areas would be greatly rejoiced and appreciated!
**Below is the exact break down of these items
ANNUAL MINISTRY NEEDS:
MEDICAL INSURANCE- (URGENT) This is our most costly annual expense! Thank you for considering supporting us in this way.
The Need: $5,500 for the year (due February 1st 2021!!)
Malarone- This medication has been a blessing the last 3 years keeping us from getting Malaria, which we never want to experience again! For us it is an essential to living here. We will need to budget this for the next 6 months. Currently we can attain 3 month worth for all of us at $1,500. We source it from Malawi and friends usually make a way for us to receive it here in country.
The Need- $1,500 for 3 months worth of Malarone
Home School Curriculum- This is has been ordered and awaiting arrival!
Visas and Annual Residencies-
Annual Mozambican residencies are always on our radar to save for. These will be due in March and the cost on these have gone up to $550/ per family member, but the GOOD NEWS IS We have already attained the needed provision for this and will go renew in February.

Stories From The Field
We would like to introduce you to this incredible teenager! Amido...I (Carla) was visiting a family member of Mama Laura's in September when I was approached by the neighbor to come visit her sick son. The desperation and hopelessness was tangible as she spoke to me. I am never really prepared for what I am going to see in these small mud homes, but I am always confident that my Father always knows and will guide me. This encounter with Amido has changed my life in a deep way, in fact, I am now trying to type through the tears that are streaming down my face. I found Amido on a thin mattress on the floor in the fetal position. When I looked at his face, I could see the trauma, pain, and defeat he was burdened with, and I could also smell the wounds that were slowly killing him. In fact, I knew in that moment that it was a miracle he was still alive, and humility and love consumed me as I said yes to journeying along side this precious young man and his Mama in healing. The next day I visited with one of our local doctors and received permission to treat him at home. The first few weeks were intense as I visited 3 times a week and any small movement caused him to cry. I was very thankful for the donated wound care supplies that helped us get through the first stages of wound care and healing. I was also extremely thankful for the education and work I have done in the hospital and hospice setting as well as home care over the years...medications, therapies, nutrition, wound care, difficult discussions, family dynamics, counseling and the list goes on. He also enjoys Ian visiting, singing, and playing guitar as he sings along in Yawo. Most importantly, the Holy Spirit has been my guide as the Father speaks direction and gives wisdom, courage and strength. Going into the fifth month of this journey, Amido's wounds are in the last stages of healing, he has gained weight, he needs less medication, and for the first time since June...he is able to get out of bed, sit in a chair, and walk inside his room with his Mama's assistance. A walking miracle! I recently had our District Medical Director visit with me, and he was also humbled by the courage of this young man...he prayed over Amido, his Mama, and me after looking in Amido's eyes and saying,
"You are a hero."
God is moving, He is speaking. He is with us in the suffering and in the healing. Thank you for supporting Amido and his Mama. The victory and glory belong to Him, and we are deeply humbled and forever changed that He has used us all in this young man's story.
