The most important way in which you can support us is through your prayers. “Unless the Lord builds the house, the builders labour in vain… (Psalm 127:1). We believe God has led us sofar and that his blessing cannot be missed.
More specifically you can pray for the current events. You can read about the most recent developments in the topics on the left of our ‘Welcome’ page. More specific prayer and praise requests can be found in our newsletters (archive).
A sportsman receives a lot of support from his supporters, who cheer and exhort the sportsman, especially when the going gets tough. In the same way missionaries needs supports, a ‘Keep up the good work!’ every now and then.
We love to be and stay in touch with family and friends. We like to be missionaries together with you. Together we can do more and reach further.
A third important form of support is financial support. As we are not paid a salary by AIM or by the churches that support us, there is the need of financial support to make our mission possible.
All donations are welcome, large, and small, just once or regularly. Your donations will be used for e.g. visa and other paperwork, housing and schooling. Besides those practical matters we will have certain costs in the ministry work as well (travelling, local helpers, study materials etc.). Finally, we need to save for home-assignments (after a couple of years we will have furlough to visit family and friends).
Regular donations may be paid with the following form(s):
Mandate form for donors from the UK.
The form can be sent by post to AIM-UK (address can be found on the forms). Please download and print the forms, do not e-mail but send the forms through the post. Banks will only act on the instructions if it is an original form (not a scanned signature).
We advise donors from other countries to contact AIM directly, as forms and procedures differ per country:
For other countries, please contact one of the offices above and ask for the applicable e-mail address.
Donations for our car:
We do have ongoing costs (repairs; maintenance cost approx €2000 per year). If you want to give specifically for our transport you can use the same procedure as described above, just mention to the office that it is a gift for the car.
One-off donations
On off donations can be done by sending a cheque or bank transfer. Cheques should be made payable to AIM International and sent to AIM International, Halifax Place, Nottingham, NG1 1QN (please send a small letter to explain it is to support us).
If you want to make a bank transfer then you will need to contact the office for a reference number (otherwise when the money comes into their bank they do not know it’s for our support).
Also, tell the office when your donation is meant for our car.
One-off payments can also be done with the form above.
For sponsors from other country, please contact the AIM office in your country (see addresses above)
