We have tremendous news to close out 2018 & celebrate with thanksgiving a fresh new start in 2019!  Please read carefully & prayerfully.
2018 has been a very blessed and productive year!Souls saved, baptized & discipled; the Beauchamp family’s arrival; Phases 1 & 2 of “ Cristina’s House Christian Children’s Home” moving forward, and the purchase of needed lands in motion at this time.
In the updated, middle photo above you will notice some lines drawn of different colors and shapes. I will share an exciting explanation with you.
In the upper right with the turquoise green lines this represents “Phase 1”, the boy’s living area of “Cristina’s House” and its land. Glory to God this section is 100% paid for with the only thing still needed being the furniture for the boy’s bedrooms.
As we move to the middle of the picture the purple boundaries show “Phase 2”, the future home for the Morris family & the girl’s living quarters. At this point in time, it is “dried in” & we are praying for God to provide for us to start completion. Here are the needs:
1. Thermopane windows & doors: $7,000 total. The Lord has blessed with half already, $3,500 is what we need at this time.
2. Electrical hookup & wiring installation: $5,000.00 estimated. God has given us $1,000.00, $4,000 remains to be given.
3. Natural Gas approval & installation: $3,500 estimated. Our Father has provided $1,500, $2,000 more is needed for this.
4. Septic Tank & field lines installation: $1500 total. A blessing of $1,000 was designated, $500 will complete this work.
5. Fresh water connection & onsite well: $2,500 total. $1,000 has been received, only $1,500 is left to complete this need.
6.  Phase 2 land & building costs of $45,000 are 100% paid for, God performed a “mighty miracle” for this necessity! Glory!!
The next “miracle” to report is the Lord has given us the entire plot of landoutlined in yellow! This connects our buildings & will also eventually be developed into a beautiful protected, playground area. Also, mature fruit trees & space to grow our food await our arrival!
We are in negotiations on the parcel of land outlined in red which will be for our future, modest church building. Please pray fervently!
Looking at the white lined area this is for “Phase 3”, the Beauchamp’s living area and additional girl’s quarters. VLMI has a portion of dedicated funds for the land, the remaining need stands at $10,000.00. Our team is asking God to provide this amount very soon!
There remains 3 parcels with pink outlines that are available if the Lord allows for future development. May His perfect will prevail!
We are asking your prayers for the remaining amount needed to be provided so that we may continue moving forward with the completion of “Phase Two” at “Cristina’s House Christian Children’s Home” as well as the acquiring the remaining needed lands.

 In the photo below is “Phase Two” (the girl’s living quarters) of our Children’s Home. You may help to complete the construction by purchasing a $5 “ virtual brick” via this secure link: https://paypal.me/pools/c/82xkksQPiu or designate your special gift for “ virtualbricks” and send it to Emmanuel Baptist Church, the mailing information is at the bottom of this letter. This will place the name of your choice on a permanent memorial in Sinca Noua, Romania when “ Cristina’s House” is completed. Approximately $50,000is currently needed to complete the interior of the building. Everything we do and that which is accomplished by our team at V.L.M.I. will always be “ALL FOR HIS GLORY”!!
