My name is Matt Carlson, and I am preparing to be a missionary for 11 months on the WR Mission Trip. Starting July of 2014 I will begin serving alongside a team of approximately 40 individuals, working within eleven countries including: Dominican Republic, Haiti, Honduras, Guatemala, Malawi, Zimbabwe, Mozambique, Philippines, Thailand, Myanmar (Burma) and Cambodia. As Minnesotans’ say, Uff dah. 

The WR Mission Trip is a journey to 11 countries in 11 months. On this World Race mission trip, my hope is to be a disciple, helping neighboring churches, caring for the homeless and those held in prostitution, building relationship with local youth, teaching english/ math, providing orphans with acceptable housing and feeding the hungry. This is all through a Christian program called the World Race, through the organization, Adventures in Missions. I would love to let you know how God is working around the world! My blog will be a great way for me to communicate my World Race experience. 

I know this time will be an important next chapter in my life and faith. I would be so thankful for your support, encouragement and prayers.

I am writing to ask if you would consider partnering financially with me in this ministry. Currently I have been able to raise $6,100 toward my final goal of $16,250 needed to participate in this mission. The final goal amount will cover all of my expenses in the field. This includes low budget housing, food and travel expenses from country to country. I would greatly appreciate any donation amount that you are able to offer. 

You can donate online by clicking the “SUPPORT ME” on my blog! 

 

Grace and peace,

Matt Carlson
