Mustard Seed Gallery
Thanks for checking out our financial partnership campaign! Allison and Rich are heading into a fast-paced summer of marriage/family discipleship (out of town more than in, from Easter through July 4); so, we’re focusing on growing our support team, before jumping into that season. With Allison recently coming back aboard the ministry team, full-time, we hope to raise an additional $5,000/month…quickly. *This will assist the Smith’s in meeting their personal, financial budget, while also providing additional funds for the ministry’s operating account. Our prayer is for 100, new financial partners to join us before June 1!
Having more flexibility to travel, opens up opportunities for expansion (this year, in Albuquerque, Colorado Springs, Texas Hill Country and the extreme Northern Panhandle)!

We’re calling this our Mustard Seed Campaign, because we believe God can do much with our little. Typically, we think of this in terms of loaves and fishes, or what God’s supernatural increase does with my small gift. BUT, God can also do much with our littles!
Over the past 15 years, 200+ families have participated in one of our Family Camps. With some sleuthing, we dug up current emails for many of these families and have “commissioned” their children (some over 30 years old, now) to create a Mustard Seed Gallery. Please take a moment to peruse (below).
These masterpieces represent a unique partnership with our ministry, as well. We are making each art piece available as a gift to our ministry partners, as you make a donation. Their gifts begetting yours!
Here’s how the Mustard Seed Campaign works…
Pray - Ask the Lord if BirdseyeVu is a ministry He’d have you come alongside.
Determine - If the answer to question #1 is “yes”… What is your present capacity to give? Would it bring you joy to help our ministry expand? Monthly support is preferable, as it allows our ministry board to provide more specific budgeting direction. However, if larger, one-time donations work best for you, is there a specific time of year you’d like us to reach out?
Give - For online, credit card donations, notice the “floating” donation button (to the right). Please enter your information and giving instructions into the secure, encrypted form. (our donation platform is Give Butter). If you’d prefer to write a check, please make payable to BirdsyeVu, and mail to the address at the bottom of this page.
Select - At the bottom of your donation form, there is an “add comments” box. Please indicate the number of your art selection, along with an alternate. We will mail your art piece, along with a fridge magnet, if you choose to display it in that manner.
We are so grateful for your prayerful and tangible support of BirdseyeVu. Together, we accomplish our mission… equipping the Family for abundant living!
Blessings!
Rich & Allison
*BirdseyeVu does not charge fees for events or individual ministry. Asking only “pass through” costs for camps/retreats allows us to reach many couples/families who would otherwise be unable to afford it. Because of this, our operating income and salaries are provided by ministry partners…like you!
