Paypal Donations

As of today, you can securely donate to Boundless Ministries through our Paypal link. We have no grand illusions about doing this...but we do have a BIG God that delights in meeting the needs of His children! And if you'll read over my posts from the last year, you'll see not only that He meets our needs, but somehow He manages to fit all the pieces of this giant Rubik's cube of life together at precisely the right moment. While He has provided for us, we have been able to turn around and use a minimum of 10% of our blessings to help others.

I am confident that He will provide for single moms in the way and the time that He desires will bring the most glory to Him and Him alone! Paypal is only one tool to help accomplish this.

And my good faith effort to be an excellent steward of God's blessings is to always give full disclosure. So there will be a monthly report posted under the financial label on this blog to give a full accounting of any donations received through Paypal, to us directly, items donated, etc. as discretely as we can. We will also e-mail this to anyone that provides their e-mail address and requests a copy.

We will NEVER disclose the recipients' names on this blog, not just for privacy but out of respect and honor as well. We pray that disclosing vague situational details (i.e. $200 gift card was given to a mom of 2 last week!) will be enough to satisfy the giver that their gift has been spent wisely while protecting the recipient at the same time.

As we've prayed about how to best oversee this new adventure and with a desire to live in such a way "that I am desperate for Him to come through. That if He doesn't come through, I am screwed," (Francis Chan, Forgotten God) we are committing that only 25% of any donated monies will be used for our support as administrators and servants of Boundless Ministries. The remaining 75% will go to serving and giving toward single moms and their families locally (Northern Kentucky), regionally (still seeking God's wisdom about where this means) and globally.

If God so leads, please give...if He doesn't so lead, please pray! And seek out opportunities to help the "widows and orphans" around you that are longing for the Father's love to be shown in their lives!

Blessings!
Angela and Dale Barthauer
