Pope family and TWO14 Update

I thought I'd post a quick update since it's been a couple of months.

First, I'm selling insurance for Austin Brokerage Company. We help small businesses and individuals with health, life and disability insurance. We work for the clients, not the companies. ABC is a great place with great people! I'm glad to work w/ the Garrett's.

Second, TWO14 Network is now an official entity with the state. That means we can accept tax deductible donations. We are still working on the 501(c)(3) status from the fed and should finish filing the paperwork by the end of this month. We thank Rick Peralez (www.churchbizsupport.com) for his help in this endeavor.

Some people have asked about financially supporting us either personally or as a network. We would certainly appreciate any and all help as the Lord leads. Tax deductible gifts can be mailed to:

TWO14 Network
124 Rinehardt St.
Hutto, TX 78634

Please indicate in the memo line if the support is for the Pope's or the general network expenses.

Third, we (at TWO14) are transitioning from a training group into a missional group. We have 5 families meeting and reaching out to our neighbors. Between kid's activities, neighborhood meetings and dinners, and work related connections, everyone is staying busy showing and telling the gospel. Our men hosted our first "outreach"... a dude's brew party. It was tons of fun and we got to meet some guys that we wouldn't know otherwise.

We want to greatly thank all of you who've been praying for us and for all the generous acts of obscene grace shown to us over the last few months! We sincerely praise God for you! Please pray that we would remain faithful to Jesus' call to embody the gospel.
