Just a little update

The actual one year anniversary of the Majcher's packing up, leaving Austin, TX and heading to the DR is August 19. What a wonderful year full of beautiful memories, challenges, set backs, leaps forward and amazing support both financially and prayerfully. I just wanted to encourage those who haven't yet to read the July post which sums up our year. There are also a few pictures from the summer thrown in. Hope your summer has been productive and restful. May you welcome the fall with anticipation and joy and thank you for taking time to check out our blog and read about what we are doing here in the Dominican Republic


A few things to pray about and highlight:

1. The Makarios School's first day of classes is September 1!! This fall we will be starting a dual language program with our two youngest classes. This is an exciting transition with incredible potential for our students.
   
2. Our family is up to 65% funding--this is a 5% increase since the July posting. YIPPEE.  At this point, we are not supported by any churches--all of our support comes from individuals.  If your church would like to partner us, PLEASE let me know how to proceed with that.
   
3. If YOU would like to financially partner with us and help us start the new school year fully funded, PLEASE visit https://makarios.webconnex.com/missionary today. Choose 'Majcher Family' from the drop down box.
   
4. I am profoundly thankful to be in a place of religious freedom—I have no fear surrounding being a Christian here. Sadly, this reality that is not everyone's. May those of us who are believers carry the gospel as the precious gift it is with the boldness of those young and old who are losing their lives violently for its cause.
