Raising support..
FORGE Canada is absorbing more and more of my time. Both locally, in terms of initiating the hub and connecting with local leaders and potential hub members.. and nationally.. spinning out the missional order, developing materials and articulating the meaning and function. Then there is the Missional Voice journal. I am really enjoying all this, but it isn’t sustainable unless I also develop a support base.
If you are interested in contributing to my work with FORGE, work that I believe is both timely and significant for the kingdom in Canada, there will be at least two ways to do so, depending on whether or not you want a tax receipt. If receipt is not an issue, PAYPAL is possible. I’ll create a button link for my website.
For others, I can supply a form to be sent to FORGE Canada that will allow single or recurring contributions to be receipted. If you are interested, drop a note to my personal email address listed on the CONTACT page here. Or you could simply leave me a note in the comments.

August was not a great month. A work project that should have been producing income this month was not released as planned in July, and the contract is now in doubt. Four days in a hospital and returning home without the energy I usually have makes it hard to be optimistic. Not sure how our finances are going to work this fall really. I need faith for this.
This month I’ll be travelling twice with FORGE – to Portland and to Victoria. In Portland we are connecting with another missional leadership network that may establish a formal connection to FORGE. In Victoria we are launching the Victoria hub. A few days later we will launch the Okanagan hub, and most likely Don Miller (yes, that Don Miller) will be here for the launch event.
