Support … Support … Support
What’s the big deal about this Support that’s always being asked for? Let me see if I can give you a clearer understanding. To support is to partner with, to encourage, to be joined and work/serve along with (even if not physically in country).
There are two ways that you can support me as a missionary.
Prayer Support is by far the most important in my mind. You, as prayer warriors, whether you are a praying person or someone who keeps the Argentina mission and me in your thoughts and hearts, are a huge part of what strengthens me, carries me and helps me to ask the hard questions, and then sometimes even harder, to respond to the answer. As we are nearing Easter, my prayer request is for strength, rest and peace while grieving the loss of Max and navigating this truly new life.
Financial Support is the necessary means to the mission. We are not meant to do things on our own. My budget is in Canadian funds and will be paid from the Evangelical Covenant Church of Canada. Thus I will not be negatively affected by exchange rates. The budget is for two years. So your commitment of an annual or monthly amount would be for the next two years. This commitment can start at any time.
As you may already have noticed; you are able to support me from Canada and from the USA. You will receive a tax receipt from the appropriate country. Support can be made online at: www.covchurch.ca/nahnychuk or you can mail in your support and the information for Canada and USA is listed there as well.
You can support financially with a onetime donation, a quarterly, or a monthly amount. Please be sure to make a note if it is ongoing support.
Thank you for your willingness to support me, Argentina and the work God is doing there. Your support also honours Max and his passion for serving and living life to the fullest. I am constantly amazed and encouraged by your comments and memories.

I HAVE CALLED YOU BACK FROM THE ENDS OF THE EARTH, SAYING ‘YOU ARE MY SERVANT.’ FOR I HAVE CHOSEN YOU AND WILL NOT THROW YOU AWAY. DON’T BE AFRAID, FOR I AM WITH YOU. DON’T BE DISCOURAGED, FOR I AM YOUR GOD. I WILL STRENGTHEN YOU AND HELP YOU. I WILL HOLD YOU UP WITH MY VICTORIOUS RIGHT HAND. Isaiah 41:9-10 No, I am not yelling at you with this scripture. I want to convey the POWERFUL STRENGTH of these words. Maybe I should be proclaiming and singing them at the top of my lungs. No, no, I won’t do that to you. I shared last month about having this verse prayed over me by Pastora Leli. This verse, among many others, is a current theme in my prayer life, my devotional life, and my life as I now know it. I have been in Argentina two months now. Over the past year, I was at the end of my worldly earth. I had no idea what I was supposed to do with this new life I had been dealt. Could I not exchange this card or give it back? But our Father, my Lord, CALLED me, He reminded me very strongly that He chose me and had plans. This in not just a new life as a widow (can […]
Ministry in Argentina
Hola Mis Amigos! As the month of departure is approaching, the direction for my ministry is becoming clearer. While it can still change and I will need to be flexible and wear many hats, at least I can share with you some specifics about how I will be serving the Covenant Churches in Argentina. All six Covenant Churches are on the Congregational Vitality Pathway. Each church is at a different level and has changes they want to make in order to move towards being healthy and missional. Each church also has various outreach opportunities and as I become more fluent in Spanish I will be plugged in wherever and however they need me. I continue to serve with open hands and a surrendered heart. Some of what I have been asked to do: mentor, support and encourage Vitality teams, pastors and leaders in the Vitality pathway support, assist and facilitate necessary workshops support and encourage Pastors and Leaders CHET – provide assistance with administration and paperwork for those wanting to embark on additional studies Working with the two churches in Bariloche in the areas of church growth and church planting Women’s Ministry There will be a ministry out of the grieving process I am going through as well I am excited to experience how this ministry will all unfold and […]
¿Donde es el oso?
So the next biggest question I get from a lot of people… What’s up with the purple bear in your photos? Well…. I hope some of our young friends from Norquay or Strathmore will contribute to this post at some point. But in the meantime, let me introduce you to Shotgun! He’s our little missionary buddy that travels with me everywhere. Whenever Max and I had an opportunity to be a part of a VBS, Camp or Sunday School lesson, Shotgun helped explain what it means to be a missionary. He has a deal with the kids. If they committed to pray for Argentina and us, he would bring them something back from Argentina. And to make it fun, the kids have to find Shotgun in each of the updates their parents get. Shotgun got his name from Max. When Max worked away from home, this lil bear would be a stowaway in Max’s gear and eventually he got to ride shotgun in the truck, hence, his name. Report This Post
