I pray that this finds you and your family well. God has been working in my life, our family, and ministry powerfully and faithfully. We have our struggles but we know God is great and trust Him to do what is best. Leading a family, home, and church is not easy but its a true joy and privilege to have such great responsibilities. The church is growing in many ways. New people are coming every week and slowly but surely people are committing to a life following Jesus. We are blazing trails and entering into new frontiers this year.
I want to share with you a challenging ministry opportunity that God has presented to me. The Lord has put it on our hearts as a church to Storm This City. That is our missions and outreach ministry focus. Whether it be in our backyard of Elmont, or a city in the USA, or a country in Central America, we want to Storm This City with love, compassion, and truth. As part of that initiative, from August 2nd – August 9th I will be going to Guatemala with a team from my church, FCOG Community Worship Service (CWS). This 1 week mission trip we will be reaching out and spreading the gospel to the people of Guatemala while also learning more about their culture.
While God has opened up a door for me to develop a greater heart of compassion for His people around the world, the exciting part is that you will be able to share in this compassion in several ways. First, you can help pray for me and my team. We will need prayers that God will prepare our team for our visit and bless our efforts as we minister to the people of Guatemala. We will be ministering to children, adults, women who are working in the red light district, and other things. We are going to need a lot of prayer. So the most important way you can partner with me, is through prayer.
I will also need prayers that our financial needs will be met. Another way you can be involved is to help provide that financial support. At this time we need to raise $1,000 each to attend this trip, and that is quite a challenge!
I am excited about the opportunity to serve and to minister, and I ask you to join me in ministry. I am seeking your support and prayers for this mission trip. If you are able to assist with this trip, a quick and easy way to help support would be by clicking this link: Donate Here
