September 2025 Update

Thank you for all of your kind and thoughtful questions about my missionary budget, since last month's update. Based on your questions I am sharing more details about my missionary budget.

The Assemblies of God (AG) creates 2 separate budgets for all 2-year Missionary Associates. The 1st budget is for monthly living expenses (i.e. rent, utilites, food, etc.) The 2nd budget is for one-time expenses (i.e. travel, moving expenses, travel visas, supplies, etc.).

The 1st budget created by the AG is $3,608.00. This budget is funded by reoccurring monthly partnerships. Once the monthly reoccuring partnerships reach $3,608.00, my monthly reoccuring partnership budget is considered fully funded. Monthly reoccuring donations are automatically deducted from the payment source you chose (i.e. checking or savings account, debit card, credit card, etc.) on the 20th of each month.

The 2nd budget is for one-time expenses in the amount of $17,129.00. This budget is formed with one-time donations. Once all of the one-time donations reach $17,129.00 then my one-time expenses budget is considered fully funded.

These dollar amounts may be seem daunting and impossible to reach, however please keep in mind “. . . with God all things are possible.” Matthew 19:26.

Now that you have a clearer explanation of my 2 budgets, I pray you can see a way to partner with me monthly or you may know someone/local business who is mission minded or has a generous spirit who maybe interested in entering into a financial partnership with me. If you know someone or have any additional questions, please reach out to me by phone, text or email.

Thanks to your generosity. My monthly partnerships is around 20%. My one-time budget is just over 50%. We're halfway there!

I am excited for all of the new partnerships/friendships the Lord will be sending through you!

Now, here’s a quick events recap of September:

I had the pleasure of speaking about missions and co-leading a workshop at the 2025 Priceless Conference at my church, Christan Life Church this month. The conference was amazing, I met amazing women of God! Had the opportunity to examine and heal an old miscarriage wound; learned the true interpretation of Psalm 23; and heard a reaffirming message that I am right where I am supposed to be; pursuing the ministry God’s placed on my heart.

In closing, I want to thank you for your prayers and financial partnership. I know not everyone can go abroad to spread the gospel however through your financial partnership you are making a way for me to go, which is just as impactful. “In the same way, the Lord has commanded that those who preach the gospel should receive their living from the gospel." 1 Corinthians 9:14

May God Bless you, Keep you and bring you Peace that surpasses all understanding!

Love 💕 Dodi
