Praise God for that, and pray that it will open up new doors to talk to more people about missions in Japan, and how they can ba a part of it.&lt;/p&gt;

We&amp;#39;re up to 13.5% now, that&amp;#39;s a 5% increase from March!&amp;nbsp;To put that in perspective, the first six months of support raising averaged less than 1% per month, and March brought in a significant 2% increase. So 5.% is pretty huge, and even better, 5.5% is exactly the amount per month that I set a goal of raising in order to get my full support by next Summer. Again, it is amazing to see God&amp;#39;s goodness and provision. He does great things.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img src="http://gloryspeaking.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=71" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description></item><item><title>11% by March 1?</title><link>http://gloryspeaking.com/blogs/news/archive/2008/02/25/11-by-march-1.aspx</link><pubDate>Tue, 26 Feb 2008 06:34:00 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">45d37040-bd31-40dd-bc88-7f33c4b8278f:41</guid><dc:creator>David</dc:creator><slash:comments>0</slash:comments><wfw:commentRss xmlns:wfw="http://wellformedweb.org/CommentAPI/">http://gloryspeaking.com/blogs/news/rsscomments.aspx?PostID=41</wfw:commentRss><comments>http://gloryspeaking.com/blogs/news/archive/2008/02/25/11-by-march-1.aspx#comments</comments><description>&lt;p&gt;Support is up to 5%!

&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#39;ll be speaking at my &lt;a class="" href="http://www.crossroadchurch.us/"&gt;home church&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;for about ten minutes or so about going to Japan as a missionary. Anyone who wants to come watch and talk to me, feel free to stop by. The service starts at 10:00AM.&lt;/p&gt;
