June 2014
Friends and Family,
It’s month 10 of my trip! Can you believe it? I want to thank you so much for being a part of my World Race journey over this past year. Your partnership with me made it possible for so many things to happen. To name a few, orphans have been poured into in Swaziland; children who were once abused were taught life skills in Cambodia; villages in Europe were introduced to The Gospel; youth have been empowered to be the next leaders of Ukraine; women, once in the sex trafficking industry in Thailand, found friendships and were given tangible alternatives to their lifestyle. Again, all of which was possible because of your partnership with the calling God has on my life.
My time on the World Race is almost over, but the things I have seen and experienced during this season are a catalyst to my future – I believe that God has called me to a life of full time ministry. I am excited to announce that I have accepted an invitation to attend a leadership academy called G42. G42 is a 6 month long leadership program in Mijas, Spain that runs from October 2014 – March 2015. This leadership academy will help equip me, hone and perfect my gifts, and give me experience. G42 will provide oversight, help, mentoring and direction to start or partner with ministry all around the globe.
I feel a passion for those who are broken and I desire to minister restoration to them. I long to pour of my heart to those in the trenches of life that need to encounter the love of Jesus. After traveling this year, I have seen a lack of minorities physically serving on the field reaching the nations. I have also seen a lack of emotional help with orphans around the world. I am open for God to use the leaders of G42 to help me develop these passions, and set realistic goals and steps to help realize not only these visions, but many more.
This is where I need your help: if it were not for your partnership before, I wouldn’t be where I am today. I pray you have seen the fruit of that. In order for me to attend G42, I need to raise a total of $7,000. This will cover tuition, a place to live, food, and my flight there and back. Of the total cost, I have already raised $2,000 because of support from people like you.
I pray that you consider financially supporting my dreams and help them become a reality. If you feel led to continue partnering with me, you can do so through online donation with G42 or by check. All donations are tax deductible. No matter how small or big, any amount makes a difference.
