Dear Supporters, Friends and Family,
May 14, 2015
We just want to first of all take a moment with very grateful hearts to thank those who have come along side us as monthly supporters (prayer and financial) as well as those who have given one time gifts. We thank God for each of you and pray for you faithfully (on a daily basis). The Lord has been so faithful to provide we are so thankful to bring each of you along on this journey as we together obey the command in James 1:27 to care for orphans.
The last couple months have been a whirlwind. We have spent so much time purging and giving away items from our home, preparing our home to be listed, and fixing up the camper we were preparing to move into. We met with a realtor and listed our home and seven days later had our first offer and five days later had a signed purchase agreement. We are still in the process of waiting for our home to close, but we have officially moved into what we are calling our “little cottage” in the woods. The reality of going to Zambia is hitting home.
Every single step of the way the Lord has been bringing just the encouragement needed even in the moments of discouragement. He continues to bring faithful supporters and those in our path who have been such a blessing and encouragement along the way. One thing he has been showing us is that all it takes is willingness to obey. He’s been stretching us and we know though at times it doesn’t feel good that ultimately it is for our good.
The need is great for hands on help in many areas after a Leader in Mongu, Pastor Lubinda, passed away after a battle with malaria. We have felt such an urgency to get to Zambia at the same time we know everything is in the Lord’s timing. We also were offered the opportunity to commit to a three year term verses our original two year term and we were happy to accept.
Our plan is to be heading to pre-field training sometime in September and then be ready to head to Zambia in January. The Lord has been so faithful to continue to bring supporters. As soon as we close on our home, Brandon plans to reduce his hours at work to allow time to continue building partnerships. We are excited about this new season as we continue to walk by faith. We just also had a t-shirt designed so if you would like to support us in this way we will be taking pre-orders very soon. All funds will go toward our start-up costs. Keep watching our facebook page to know how you can get an order into us.
Thank you again for your faithful support. It is truly an honor to partner with each of you and an honor to pray for your families. If you have any new prayer needs please let us know. You can reach us by email or telephone. We would love to hear from you.
In His Service,
Brandon and Brandy Fuller & Family

Our budget is divided up into “Startup Costs” and “Monthly Costs”. We also need a team of people who will commit to pray and advocate for us. Our time for leaving may seem far away, but we need to be preparing. Part of that is discovering now who will stand with us in this journey of ministry. There are several ways you can partner with us:
· Commit to give a special gift toward our startup costs.
· Commit to give monthly. While we are preparing to go, these funds will help cover our startup costs. When we move to Zambia, these will help sustain our family and ministry.
· Commit to pray for our family as we prepare, and for our brothers and sisters that we will minister with.
· Commit to advocating for us. Help come alongside us by inviting us to meet others that you know who may be interested in joining our partnership team.
