God has provided a team of financial partners whose giving to DiscipleMakers meets Becky Snyder’s ministry funding goal! This means Becky is ready to transition to her next ministry assignment: serving on campus with DiscipleMakers’ Susquehanna Valley Team.
(The Susquehanna Valley Team ministers at Bloomsburg University, Bucknell University, and Susquehanna University.)

The process of recruiting a team of financial partners can sometimes take a long time. In Becky’s case, however, God provided quickly. She began raising support in June, reached the 50% mark in July, and reached full support just before the end of August.

Conventional wisdom says that people give most generously in times of financial security, which would suggest that 2020 would not be a good year to raise support as a new missionary. Based on her experience inviting people to invest in DiscipleMakers’ ministry to students, however, Becky shared a more nuanced view. “Very few people regarded the pandemic as a reason not to invest,” she said. “This is the time when college students need the gospel most. People were excited about that mission, and they were excited about doing it now.”

Becky’s support raising mentor, Taylor Kauffman, sees Becky as a valuable new team member arriving at a crucial moment for ministering to students. “She’s a natural community builder, so it will be great to see how the Lord uses her to help build the staff team as well as the campuses, not only as they navigate the pandemic but also long-term.”

Praise God with us for sending a new worker into the harvest field! (Matt. 9:37–38)
