Most of you
have heard me talk about going to Spain this spring. Some of you have read what
about the opportunity I have in there. In case you haven’t, here is a short
summary:
G42
(Generation 42) is a leadership academy located in Mijas, Spain. “The 42nd
generation is a network of Christ-followers with the mission to plant churches
& ministries and to spread the Kingdom of God around the world-to inspire
& develop leaders & radicals who are passionate about the poor,
orphans, & laying their lives down for Christ.”
“Our goal at the G42 Leadership Academy is to equip (interns) in
three major areas-fulfilling your purpose & destiny, expanding your
leadership abilities, and learning how to live out each of those in the real
world-and then empower you to establish the Kingdom where God has called you.
That’s it. We work for the Glory of God and His Kingdom.” (g42leadershipacademy.org)
For some reason, God isn’t letting me settle
anywhere-which I am enjoying. My heart has always been in love with change,
missions, ministry, and travel. The World Race was just a first step of faith
in giving my life fully to God and telling him HE could do what he wants to
with it. Some day, maybe I will settle into one spot. But for now, my life
keeps moving quickly from place to place. I know I am called to full time
ministry and with that comes sacrifices. That is exactly what God wants. He
wants all of me which means giving up all I want for my life.
Full time ministry also means getting support
financially for a long time. Hopefully, you can see my heart in this. I’m not asking for you to donate to
something I want to do, I’m asking for you to donate so that I can be a part of
what the Lord is doing. Ultimately, I know that God will provide abundantly
more than I could ask or imagine, in ways I can’t even comprehend. In fact, it
has taken me this long just to write this out because I have been waiting for
the Lord to tell me how to go about pursuing my time at the leadership academy
in Spain.
The cost of schooling, ministry, and room & board is $1,000 per month. There is also the cost of my flight to
and from Spain. Currently I am
working to save money so I can continue to pay my loans throughout the time I
am in Spain. I want to be responsible with what God has given me and with my
personal financial state.
What can you do?
1) Always,
always pray please! Pray for God’s
provision. Pray that I would continually seek God’s heart and always walk hand
in hand with him. Pray for the finances of the trip, for safety and protection.
2) Ask any
questions you would like. Ask me the hard things; I am more than willing to
share with you all that God has been doing.
3) Keep me
in the loop with your life too. I love relationships and want to hear about
things happening in your life. Tell me ways I can be praying for you.
4) If you
feel led you can support me in this, go to http://www.g42leadershipacademy.org/donate and click on the button for donating to an intern. I am in need of buying my plane ticket as soon as possible.
It would be helpful if a few people would be willing to give directly to me in
order to purchase that ticket. This would mean it would not be tax deductible
however.
I can’t
thank you enough for your dedication to the Lord’s work and your support of me.
The Lord uses us each in specific ways, each for the glory of His kingdom.
Thank you for your obedience to him!
