Accepted by Wycliffe!

Dear friends, we have heard from Wycliffe that our application for membership has been accepted, and we are now officially members of Wycliffe! Thank you all for praying with us during this time.
My new job that I started here at Fort Hood three weeks ago (I got hired the same day I found out about our acceptance to Wycliffe) has been wonderful. I am working in IT as a contractor on Fort Hood. My employer knows of our plans with Wycliffe and are supportive. In fact they granted us two weeks time off in September to go to Orlando for Wycliffe training after only one week as an employee! Talk about favor from God.
The next step for us is Partnership Development, the phase of Wycliffe membership where we learn to trust God for partners to join us in prayer and financial support. It has been exciting, as we have already begun to receive both one time financial gifts as well as pledges for monthly support; even before we have officially asked for either. God is really prompting people and people are being obedient to His voice.
Please join us in prayer as we enter this phase which will surely be a growing experience for us both. We are praying for the partnership development process to go rapidly so that we may begin working with JAARS sooner rather than later. Continue to pray for Ruthe as she homeschools our children who are doing excellent.
Our email addresses will remain richreidjr@hotmail.com and ruthejreid@msn.com, however we now also have rich_reidjr@wycliffe.org and ruthe_reid@wycliffe.org.
If you wish to join with us in our ministry either in prayer or financially, please contact us by email, mail, or phone.
Love,
Rich
