We will be going as independent missionaries and it costs quite a bit to support a family of 5 halfway across the globe. I have been working with missionaries already in Uganda to get an idea of what kind of budget we will need to survive there and have come up with a budget of roughly $4,823 per month. Here is a summary of our budget:
Housing (rent, help, utilities, maintenance | 1330 |
Cell Phone/Internet | 95 |
Food/supplies | 400 |
Return trips to US | 400 |
Insurance (medical, life, co-pays) | 300 |
Auto expenses | 196 |
Savings (long term, short term, shortfalls | 300 |
Misc (computer, clothing, education, etc) | 180 |
Subtotal | 3201 |
Tithe | 320 |
Agency | 579 |
Taxes | 723 |
Total | 4823 |
With a budget like that, it will take many supporters to be a part of our team to make this mission successful. By giving, you get an opportunity to participate in our ministry in Uganda. Paul said in Philippians 4:17, “Not that I seek the gift itself, but I seek for the profit which increases to your account”. If you need additional Biblical evidence for financial support of missions, check out 2 Corinthians 8-9. All donations will go through Heart for Uganda, a 501 (c)(3) organization, which means that donations will be tax exempt and they will provide financial accountability for the donations. If you want to know more about the trip, please give me a call at 940-867-4678 and I would love to share what the Holy Spirit has been doing in our lives.
