Updates on Financial Needs

How I Need God as Provider in My Life Right Now:
For the Internship, I need to fundraise $100/month. 
-Books/materials I need to learn for myself. 
-Books/materials for others that I'll develop in the prophetic.
-Prophetic events and conferences held by Ethnos
-Prophetic events and conferences for me to attend (so that we can learn from and improve our ministry).
*Short-term Goal: $400 by the May 1st (I haven't raised anything from January)

For Personal Living Expenses, I need about $120/month. (That's $30/week).
-Groceries (I haven't asked for this money before because I've tried to sustain myself by working on the side, but I'm finally deciding to accept full-time ministry until June or September, depending on what God leads me to do.)
*Short-term Goal: $120 by May 1st

For ICF, I don't need any immediate funds because our retreats and major events have passed by. If we need more funds, I will update this.

What I'm Doing this Year

Hello Friend :)

I started this blog so that I could post about how faithful God is as a Provider in my life.
Psalm 121 -
I lift up my eyes up to the mountains.
Where does my help come from?
My help comes from you,
Maker of Heaven, Creator of the Earth.

What I'm Doing This Year: Working for God full-time!

Ethnos Internship
I am studying prophecy (hearing from God) with Pastor Chuck Whitley, learning about how prophecy is used in the Old Testament, the New Testament, and in this current day and age. Why? Prophecy doesn't operate the same way today as it did back then. Back then, only select people heard from God (a people group called prophets). Now, because of Jesus, every Christian is capable of hearing from God. Those who practice and are trained under experienced prophetic leaders can really nourish and encourage people with the heart of God. You might ask if I'm charismatic. I don't really know how to answer that question. I'm learning about the prophetic from the charismatic and reformed perspective. I think both are useful because my goal is to follow Jesus and voice God's heart, not a tradition (whether that's charismatic or reformed). Just as a clarification: Ethnos is a non-denominational church.

International Christian Fellowship (ICF)
I am a leader of leaders at International Christian Fellowship, which is affiliated with InterVarsity Christian Fellowship (a campus ministry at UCSD and also at many other campuses nationwide). We seek to befriend international students and show them the love of Jesus in practical, emotional, and spiritual ways.

These are our faithful leaders (Kristen, Tracy, me in the pink, Jessica, Jen, Alaina, Ken, and Yu-Han).
Each of them love Jesus so much! We seek to bring the Kingdom of God to Earth in tangible ways.

Couple Goals for this Year:
1. For all of our leaders to be bible studies or spiritual conversations with 2 non-Christian internationals per quarter.
2. See 7 international students come to faith by June 7th. (3 have come to faith so far.)

This is our UCSD ICF group at Catalina Island for retreat with other ICF college groups from all of Southern California. Our group ended up being 1/3 of the whole retreat! (Last year we only brought about 6 international students.)

How I Will Update the Blog:
1. This blog will specifically be about how God is updating the funds in my life.
2. I will update weekly. (This means that I will update on April 15th.)

May God bless your soul and may we bless Him with our souls!

In Jesus,
Christine Lee
