New Job! and GRN Update.

Hi!

So in case you haven't already heard, I got the job with Suhr Guitars in Lake Elsinore, CA (about 30 minutes north of Temecula)! I've been there one week so far and it has been a huge answer to prayer in several ways. Mainly financially, but I'm also finding that I really enjoy the work and the environment. I am working in the marketing department with several others and I'm getting to do a lot of product photography and photoshop work. But it looks like I'll even get to do some audio work coming soon as well! It feels like the kind of job I've been searching for and I've received a lot of peace in the midst of chaotically learning so many new things. Many of my co-workers are believers as well, so some days we'll listen to Air1 while working. Needless to say, many things have lined up perfectly for this to work out, and I feel that it's right where God wants me for the time being.

Now, you may be thinking to yourselves, "That's great... but what happened to your work with Global Recordings Network?" Well, that's a good question. I still plan on volunteering there part time, but it's looking like it'll only be once a week or so. It was a great opportunity to be there full time and experience missions and how GRN operates, but as I neared the end of my time there, I began to realize that this type of office work was only something that I could do in small doses. As my finances wound down, I began looking for work, and the Lord blessed me with my current position just in time. I've taken that as a sign that I should switch gears a bit.

I know I say this a lot, but I sincerely I want to thank all of you for your prayers and support. I can't put into words how valuable it has been to me. In tough times of transition to a new life, far away from friends and family, having a prayer team brings so much comfort. May He bless you all abundantly in return for your prayers and support of Kingdom work!

Financial support/donations to my GRN account will be closed from here on out as I transition to a regular work-based support on my own. Again, I can't thank you all enough for your donations (one-time and monthly) This act of service would not have been possible without you, and because of your support toward GRN, there are now many more scripts available for people around the world to hear the Good News!

If you would like to continue to support Global Recordings Network on a more general basis you can visit this site: 
GRN Donations
or you can send a direct check to the USA office and note that you would like to donate to the general fund. The address is: 41823 Enterprise Circle North, Ste 200, Temecula CA 92590-5682


Ephesians 1:15-16
15 For this reason, ever since I heard about your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for all God’s people, 16 I have not stopped giving thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers.


This is another cool passage I was reminded of recently:
Colossians 3:23-24
"Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters, since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving."

Lord bless you all!

-Matt
