3:18 Christmas Project

                                          3:18 Christmas Project!

Christmas time is just around the corner! This is an exciting time for us at 3:18 Ministries!  We would love for you to share in our opportunity to bless some children and families on the San Carlos Reservation this year!  We are planning on three different projects of blessing this Christmas.

First, we are planning to have a Christmas party at the youth home and bless each child and staff with some gifts and great memories as we show them Jesus. How you can help? Donate money or Wal-Mart or Kohl’s gift cards to help purchase their gifts.

Second, we want to encourage and continue to build relationships with our “construction guys”.  We would like to take them to a sporting event for their “Christmas Bonus” as well as help them to choose and buy gifts for their children.  How you can help? Again, donating money and Wal-Mart gift cards will help us to do this.

Finally, to help bless and build stronger families we would like to give all of the children whose parents are involved in parenting class at Social Services and San Carlos Alternative High School a new book and a new stuffed animal. How you can help?  You can send books and stuffed animals to 3:18 Ministries 1210 E Crestwood Dr Globe AZ 85501 or you can order books and stuffed animals online at Walmart.com and then have them sent Site to Store to the Claypool AZ store.  Make sure you list Kara Satter as the person picking them up, and sending a text message to (928)200-1974.you can send Wal-Mart gift cards as well.

Thank you so much for helping us to give unconditional gifts while we share the love of Jesus with children and families!

Please have these items to us by 12/12/12!

So what happens now?

We've picked up our lives and moved to Globe Arizona. My whole life has been in Southern California. I grew up in Cerritos, graduated from Cerritos High. Worked in Compton. Got married and lived in Lakewood. There was a brief time we moved to Modesto, but I would prefer to forget that time in my life. Anyway, we have lived in Orange County for the past 20 years. Life was good. I worked at Knott Avenue Christian Church for 13 years. Liz worked for CDF, Church Development Fund. Life was good. But something strange happened. We felt God calling us to Globe. I would have been happy to go to Australia. I love the people there. I have friends there who think of me, Liz and our kids as family. Life would have been great there. But no, We had to be a called to Globe. I'm not saying it's bad in Globe, (tarantulas, scorpions, lizards and cockroaches, and that's just IN the house.) no, Globe is nice. The people are friendly, gas is cheaper, housing is cheaper. We get to work with three of the best people you will ever want to meet. But why here in Arizona? Aren't missionaries supposed to go to the deep dark places in the world where no one has heard of Jesus? Isn't that what we've always heard? Isn't this a "Christian" nation after all? Aren't we the richest nation in the world? Well let me tell you something I've learned along the way, EVERYONE needs to hear about Jesus. That's right everyone. The Apache people on the San Carlos Reservation, and Aboriginal people in Australia. The people living in Globe. The people living in Anaheim. The people living in every state in the US, the people living in every country in the world. As the song goes, "Everybody needs Jesus, everybody has a right to know..."

So what happens now? I don't know, I'll just have to follow what Jesus has for me and we'll see.
