Dear Friends and Family,
I hope this letter finds you well. I am so excited to share with you my plans for the upcoming year! I will be graduating from the University of Georgia in May with a degree in International Affairs and French. I am still planning on pursuing a career in this field, however, recently the Lord has taken my life in somewhat of an unexpected direction—on an adventure that I never thought I’d have.
In July 2014, I will serve as a missionary through an organization, Adventures in Missions (AIM), on the World Race. The World Race is an 11-month mission trip to 11 different countries around the world. Those countries are: Albania, Turkey, Bulgaria, Romania, South Africa, Swaziland, Botswana, India, Nepal, Mongolia and China. On the World Race, my team and I will serve in partnership with churches and ministries in local communities to preach the Gospel, plant churches, work in orphanages, minister to women and children who are trapped in prostitution as a result of human trafficking, and bring the restoration and hope of the Father’s love to many nations, tribes, and tongues.
I am writing to you to ask if you would consider partnering me in my ministry financially and in prayer. I must raise $16,285 which covers all costs while in the field. This number is quite daunting, but I am trusting for supernatural favor and I know that He will provide! My prayer is that He does that through you. Your financial support can be given as a one-time gift or as monthly donation, wherein you choose the amount and beginning and end date.
I have enclosed a response card and pre-addressed envelope, inviting you to share in this ministry. Please make checks payable to Adventures In Missions and return the response card with your donation to:
Adventures In Missions
PO Box 534470
Atlanta GA 30353-4470
The response card will provide AIM with the information necessary to send you a receipt for your donation. Also please write “Gabrielle Hobbs” in the memo line of the check to ensure it reaches my account.
If you would prefer to make your donation online, you may do so by visiting my blog site at: gabriellehobbs.theworldrace.org. Just click the “Support Me” link in the upper left side. This blog will also be my main means of communication, providing you with weekly updates about my adventures and what God is doing around the world. You can also access my blog to find out more about the financial breakdown.
I don’t’ know how the Lord will use me yet, all I know is that I’ve said yes to His calling. I can only imagine what amazing things He has planned and I am beyond excited to see how God will continue to work in my life and those whom I have the honor to serve. I want to thank you in advance for your loving support and encouragement. May God bless you abundantly as you prayerfully consider partnering with me in this adventure.
Joyfully,
Gabrielle
