Thought I would post my support letter for the people who have not seen or read it.
Dear Family and Friends,
I wanted to write to you and share some new things that are going on in my life. Recently I have decided to take a year off of school to focus on my future and myself. I’ve been on various short-term mission trips over the years, and recently felt called to full time mission working with Human Trafficking victims. My experiences in both Moldova and Thailand really showed me that this is what God is calling me to pursue. I am trusting God with my future and I am going to follow my Isaiah 6:8 promise which says “Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying, "Whom shall I send? And who will go for us?" And I said, "Here I am. Send me!" I have promised the Lord that wherever he sends me, I will go.
I have been called to serve as a missionary through an organization called Adventures in Missions, in their World Race program. The World Race is an 11-month Christian mission trip to 11 different countries around the world. Through adventure, ministry, community, and self-discovery, World Racers develop broken hearts that propel their hands to act for God’s kingdom around the globe. 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 for the Father’s love to many tribes and nations. I will be leaving in September 2012 and returning in August 2013, while on the field I will have a blog in which you can follow at savannahdavis.theworldrace.org.
I am incredibly grateful for this opportunity that God has given me, and I am very confident that He will provide for all my needs! In order for this trip to be made possible, I am asking that you would consider partnering with me financially, if you are able to do so. I must raise $15,000 in order to go on the World Race, which will cover the cost of travel, food, and transportation on the field. This support can be given as a one-time gift or as a monthly donation. With the monthly donation you choose the amount and the beginning and end date of the gift.
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. If you would prefer to make your donation online, you may do so by visiting my blog site at: savannahdavis.theworldrace.org. Just click the “Support Me” link in the upper left side of the page and complete your donation as instructed.
Thank you so much for your love and support as I begin this awesome journey! I am so excited to see how God will move in my life and in the lives of others in the coming year. If you are not able to partner with me financially please partner with me in prayer as I prepare to leave and while I am on the mission field! I hope not only to be a blessing to those I serve, but also to you. I would be honored to go as your representative to bring Christ Jesus to nations around the world. I want to thank you in advance for your prayers and financial support. May God bless you as you prayerfully consider partnering with me in this ministry.
In His Name,
Savannah Davis
