Support Raising Update

By God’s grace, we are very close to having all of our needed monthly committed support! We are so excited to see God’s provision and are looking forward to being at full support very soon. We are so close!
Presenting our ministry at Graham Church

During the recent holiday season God blessed us with quality time with much of our extended family. We really enjoyed making memories with our families as we prepare to begin serving overseas.
God has also recently given us 3 opportunities to share our ministry with churches in Michigan, as well as dozens of opportunities to share with individuals and families. We are thankful for so many who have already joined our support team and helped us reach this point! 

Next Steps

Full support- Camino Global requires us to be 100% fully supported before we can be released to the field. We are very close to our goal!
Visa process- while we continue raising support, we are working on obtaining visas. We will apply at the Mexican consulate in Detroit.
Commissioning services- we will have a commissioning service at Bible Baptist Church in Traverse City, MI on April 8th and at Suber Road Baptist in Greer, SC on April 15th.
Plane tickets and Packing- once we have full support and our visas, we can buy our one-way tickets, pack, say our goodbyes, and leave for Mexico!

Thank You!!

As this month of Thanksgiving draws to a close, we want to express our thankfulness to God and to you for your partnership in ministry. Thank you for your encouragement! Many of you have encouraged us with kind and helpful words and deeds during the last several months as we’ve been raising support for our mission work in Mexico. Thank you! Thank you for your prayers! Many of you have prayed for us faithfully as we’ve traveled, shared our ministry, and prepared for ministry in Mexico. We know that mission work is spiritual warfare, and we desperately need your prayers on our behalf. Thank you! Thank you for your giving! Many of you have partnered with us financially and we are very thankful for your help. We could not serve without you. Thank you! We deeply appreciate you and the part God has given you in our ministry and in our hearts. Thank you for working together with us for the advance of the gospel in Mexico.

Collins Family Update: March 2022

Changing Ministry Location Many of you already know that we are planning to move back to the States in the near future. We have shared with many of you the reasons for this change, but if anyone has questions or concerns about this decision, please feel free to reach out to us. We are planning to arrive back in the States in mid-April, and we hope to see many of you then. We are currently pursuing an opportunity to serve in pastoral ministry in the northern Michigan area, and we are waiting for an answer from the church. While we patiently wait for God’s leading in our ministry change, we are continuing to serve in our ministries in Mexico, and we will continue serving via online ministry once we are back in the States. We expect to need missions support at least through the end of May, and perhaps longer depending on how God leads us in the next two months. We will do our best to keep in touch with our supporters as we learn how God is leading our family and ministry. We would ask ...

Mexico, Here We Come!

Tomorrow morning, while you will probably still be sleeping, we will begin our journey to Mexico. Our first flight is scheduled just before 5:30 AM, and we will be traveling all day with two connecting flights before we get to Puebla, Mexico tomorrow evening. We found out today that the airline we are flying with (Delta) had a major glitch in their system a couple days ago with hundreds of flights canceled, and so we are hoping and praying that our flights will not be canceled or delayed tomorrow. Please pray with us for safe and timely travel and connections tomorrow, and for patience and wisdom should we have to deal with canceled or delayed flights. Please pray for our different opportunities while we are in Mexico. We will have opportunities to meet many missionaries and other contacts in the Puebla area. We will have opportunities to see a variety of ministries and places we can serve in the future. We will have opportunities to share the gospel as I (Chris) speak at an orphanage...
