Greetings from Grand Rapids, Michigan, where I (Brad) am doing a meeting marathon. A few quick items:

- - - - - - - - - - - - -

1) COMMISSIONING SERVICE
Cheryl and I will be commissioned as Covenant project missionaries this Wednesday at the opening service of the annual meeting of the Evangelical Covenant Church, here in Grand Rapids. That service will be broadcast live on the web. You'll need QuickTime on your computer if you want to watch. You can find the broadcast link at: beta.covchurch.org/am

4-6 p.m., PDT (7-9 p.m. EDT), this Wednesday, June 14th

2) SUPPORT GROWING
When we add in all of the components we have now received about 2/3 of the commitments that we need to have in hand in order to get us to Guam in August. Pretty amazing! Praise God! We know that we'll still need to raise a bit more once we get there but this is a incredible start. Thank you.

If you would like to support the ministry you can send a check or commitment response to:

PM Support for Boydstons
Department of World Mission
Evangelical Covenant Church
5101 N Francisco Ave
Chicago IL 60625-3676 USA

Checks should be made out to the "Evangelical Covenant Church" with the clear designation "for the support of Brad & Cheryl Boydston." If possible print and include this .pdf form.

You all are a great source of encouragement to us!

3) HOME FOR SALE
The plan is to fund about 30% of this mission project with assets from the sale of our home -- which is now on the market. Please keep that in your prayers.
