Some basics for those of you just now dropping in: My sister and I are about to embark an 11-month Christian mission trip to 11 different countries across 4 continents. We’re headed to: Argentina, Bolivia, Paraguay, Chile, Uganda, Ethiopia, Rwanda, Serbia, Bulgaria, Romania, Cambodia, and Thailand. The work will range from country to country in partnership with established ministries in each area. We’ll work in orphanages, build churches, minister to trafficked women, and more. Between the two of us, we need to raise a total of $36,000 by October 2017.
It’s solid wood with a golden state seal. The very look of it, dignified, impressive.
It’s made to invite people in. Draw them closer. Encourage conversation.
It’s a constitutional chair, an auction donation from our State Representative, Wayne Faircloth.
When we began this journey, we thought that our church would support us, and they have. We expected encouragement from our family and friends, and they’ve given it.
We didn’t expect support from our elected officials.
The Lord is bigger than our expectations. He is, “The One who can do infinitely more than all we can ask or imagine.”
We want to formally and publicly say thank you, Representative Faircloth, for acting out your faith. We’re honored to have your support.
“May the Lord repay you for what you have done. May you be richly rewarded by the Lord, the God of Israel, under whose wings you have come to take refuge.” Ruth 2:12
