When God spoke to Katherine to take her first mission trip to Russia, we didn’t have 10 cents to call our own. Down on our knees in prayer, we went in search of the answer to our financial need for her trip. The Lord specifically spoke to Katherine to write three letters to businessmen we knew. Disappointingly, each one of them responded saying their businesses had come upon ‘hard times’ and they were sorry but they were not in a position to help financially.
