Giving to Chapdelaine Ministries, Prayer Movement

So, for four years my family and I have taken a step of faith to embrace music and prayer as missionaries in the city of Cincinnati.  We've also been called to adopt children in our city.  I don't think I've posted how to give & support our efforts in a while, so here's a simple step-by-step on how you can partner with us financially & give: Supporting our family in this ministry financially: 1. Go to LCN's giving page (they're our partner church):  Click Here 2. Select Chapdelaine Ministries from the drop down menu. 3. Fill out the form for a monthly recurring donation or one-time. 4. We receive 100% of what you give (no administrative fees) and it's tax-deductible. Sweet! We couldn't do this without The Church. Thank you!
