In just sixteen weeks my granddaughter and I will be going on a mission trip to Panama. We are so excited to be able to go again this year. Last summer we went to Quito, Ecuador, it was awesome. We were gone for two and a half weeks, we ministered to the children in orphanages, the poor peasants in the mountains, and we ministered in the parks and streets of the city. Over a thousand people gave their hearts to the Lord, we saw people healed and set free, and we had a chance to minister to the youth that traveled with us. Their were over four hundred people the went on the trip with us, most of them were between the ages of twelve and eighteen. many of these kids are from broken homes. We ministered to our kids for things like sexual abuse, incest, cutting, eating disorders, and violence. It is unreal what we as Christians can do to our children.
This year we go to Panama. We will be going down the rivers and will be ministering to the people of the remote villages. We are so excited to get this opportunity to minister on this level. So today I am asking you for financial support. We each need $2398.00 for the trip, this money includes the cost of lodging, food, and our international flights. We will also need around $400.00 for our flights down to Fort Lauderdale and cash for our own personal use while we are there. We know that the economy is tight and we don't expect people to give us vasts sums of money but if you could just send us even five or ten dollars it would help a great deal. Of course if you want to send the whole amount we would be happy to take it. You can make your checks out to Big World Ventures and send them to me, I will send them to Tulsa. Your donations are tax deductible and they will send you a tax receipt in January.
If you are unable to help us financially, could you please pray for us? Please pray for the people of Panama, that their hearts are prepared for Word, that they will be open to the Gospel, and that miracles will take place.
If any of you would like to go with us, we would love to have you go. You can find the information on the Big World Ventures web site. They are still taking applications. Just tell them I sent you. I love you all thank you and God bless you.
