In the past month, our team has been exposed to over five different ministries each vastly different from the last. Children’s VBS, planting a garden & playing soccer at multiple prisons, cleaning/packing and unpacking a whole household, college campus evangelism, volunteering at a food bank, camp staff for a women’s retreat- each opening our eyes to new needs and facets of the Kingdom. More on our ministry in my other blogs!
All this to say, none of this would be possible without you; my dedicated supporters. So thank you! Thank you for constantly keeping our teams in your prayers and for your endless support.
As far as fundraising goes, I still need $4,830 to be fully funded by the end of the year which is quickly approaching! Always tax deductable and always received with a grateful heart. Having been funded enough to launch has been an answered prayer. Now, I pray to be fully funded by Christmas so I am able to stay here on the field! I am still promoting my “adopt-a-box” fundraiser to completely cover all of the countries I will be ministering in. To review how it works:
You will pick a box (or multiple boxes) that matches how much you donate (#36 = $36, #4 = $4, #36 + #4 = $40) As soon as a box is ‘adopted’ I will update the list below and start coloring in my countries.
Every box & donation counts! Every ‘adoption’ is one step closer to my goal of $16,600! And trust me when I say the little numbers do add up! And don’t forget that in each ministry country I will be drawing a “box number” and if that corresponds with your donation I’ll be sending you a gift from on the field. As a special thank you!
You can donate two ways — venmo: Gemma-Folsom OR donate by scrolling up and clicking the ‘donate’ button at the top of this page (if you’re on my website) or clicking on my link: https://gemmafolsom.theworldrace.org and following the instructions from there! You can email me ([email protected]) which box or boxes you have chosen so I can thank & pray for you!
You can’t begin to imagine how blessed I feel every time I get a message of a donation or a message saying you are praying for me! Never underestimate the power of your prayers! My heart sours and feels the warmth of the Father’s love & provision! Thank you, truly.
UPDATES: boxes up for adoption!
