Hi there,
I have something exciting coming up in my life that I wanted to share
with you!
God
has always moved in my life in ways I have never thought possible. Before I started working with youth I had a
desire to travel. I wanted to see as
much of God’s masterpieces firsthand.
So, the path he has taken me down was to work with youth and show them
how much they are loved and that God has a purpose for them as well. It has been a great journey up to this point
but God has more for me still. I have always wanted a chance to go on an
overseas mission trip but never thought
Africa, but God has done it again. It reminds me of an Audio Adrenaline song
Hands and Feet.
I'll go where You send me, go where You send me
I'll be Your hands
I'll be Your feet
I'll go where You send me, go where You send me
An opportunity has presented itself for me to be able to
travel to Zambia, Africa to a town called Kalomo which is in southern Zambia, lying north east of Livingstone, on
the main road and railway line to Lusaka.
The organization that I will be going through is called
Africa’s Child. They have a dream of revaluation of changing lives, families
and communities through the power of Jesus Christ and through service to
others.
While there I will be volunteering at Namwianaga Mission Orphanage. At the orphanage I will love on precious
children who have little in this life, which is a huge need because many of
these children hold on to life by a thread. We will also be visiting the compounds, which
are neighborhoods, building friendships and spending time with the Zambian
people. Africa’s Child has purchased
property for their God-sized vision to build a Life Center for children with
AIDS and their families to receive medical, spiritual and material aid and we
will visit the location.
Our team will be traveling September 17th through
the 26th, 2013. The cost will be $3,000 and I am working hard to
raise funds for the trip. I know I can
not accomplish this task on my own and that I trust God will provide.
Please pray and think about what you can donate. I appreciate the amount you can give and all
donations are tax deductible. Please make
checks out to Paradox Church.
It’s alright if you cannot help me out financially but please pray for me
I have listed a few requests.
1. As I write I am having a difficult time asking
for help to go on this trip.
2. For safe travels.
3. The group would work well together.
4. For my husband and boys while I am away from
them.
I would like to thank you
for your support for me through prayer, financially or both.
Trusting Him,
Amber
