MISSIONS ARE ABUNDANT!

Hello all,

This year is proving to be the most busy, in terms of Missions, in the life of my church Crosstown Chapel.  My family and I have the opportunity to be able to serve this year in the Bahamas, Mexico, Orlando, and North Carolina with our church family.  It is always very exciting and very humbling to be able to serve with the missionaries, the church, and the community in those areas.

Our missions start out in the Bahamas from April 16th - April 23rd.  While here, I along with my church family, will be doing construction work at an AIDS camp and encouraging the residents that are there as well.

From there, my family will then join me in Mexico from July 2nd - July 9th where we will be doing a vacation bible school and church construction projects.

We then move onto Orlando, FL.  Our church is making two trips here, July 29th - July 31st and August 5th - August 7th.  I will be attending both while my family will join me for one.  In Orlando, we will be doing a vacation bible school and helping local ministries in the area.

We round out the year in North Carolina from December 3rd-December 8th.  Still serving with our church family, Tara and I will be along to help pack and ship crates at the Operation Christmas Child distribution center.

As you can imagine, trips like these require financial support. The deadlines for monies due are fast approaching. Just so you have an idea, the costs associated with these trips include transportation expenses, lodging, food, and materials for the projects we will be doing. Crosstown Chapel strives to keep the costs as low as possible. If you could support me and my family in a financial way we would be extremely grateful.

More importantly than your financial support, we need your prayer support. Prayer is the fuel that will allow us to be successful as we follow God’s leading in the various ministries that we will be involved in. Without prayer, nothing will happen.
