How Can You Help Pave The Ruse’s Road?

Posted by Jon and Katie Ruse on Thursday, May 6th, 2010

Ruse Support 

  1. Most Importantly!  We need comitted monthly supporters at whatever amount you are led by the Lord to Give.  We have a specific yearly budget set for our ministry.  Each comittment of monthly support shows us how close we are to being able to sustain that budget while we serve with New Tribes Mission.  This in turn is the main factor on when we are able to leave for PNG knowing that we are fully funded and will be able to meet the needs of our family and ministry.
  2. If you are not able to suppor us on a monthly basis would you consider a one time gift?  Here are some specific Projects you could give to!  

ONE-TIME GIFTS TOWARDS THESE SPECIFIC NEEDS:

  • $10,000 for one-way tickets to PNG for our family
  • $4-5,000 shipping costs to move the necessary items overseas
  • 4 Years clothing and supplies for each family member including certain supplies for the dorm (cooking for 14)

Here is another fun way to look at Giving!
