Friends and Family,

I have some great news to share with you! This March, myself and around 30 other guys from Crossline Community Church will be heading out on a missions trip to the country of Haiti. This will be the biggest group of men we've ever sent and I'm excited that God has called so many to participate! We have a great team of guys lead by our Men's Pastor Kenny Luck and our Missions Director Dave Brodsky. Since the devastating earthquake of 2010 that claimed hundreds of thousands of lives, Crossline Communtiy Church, The Global Mission, and The Chanje Movement has been dedicated to serving the country of Haiti.

Why I feel called: Growing up in the United States, God has blessed me beyond what I deserve and I want to pay it back to others. While this will be my first trip, the stories I've heard coming out of Haiti are incredible! From the joyful attitude of the Haitian people, to the orphanages that have been built, to churches being planted, and hungry mouths being fed. I hope God can use me in some way to continue their momentum. Matthew 9:37 "The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few."

When: March 14th-20th 2018

How: Through prayers and support from friends and family. While we can provide the support on our own, we're far more powerful with others involved. My goal is to build a community of friends and family that are involved and invested in this trip. For those of you that are unable to take a week off work, be away from family or maybe don't feel called to go, this is your chance to contribute to God's kingdom. Proverbs 18:16 "A gift opens the way and ushers the giver into the presence of the great."      

I started a fundraiser on Pure Charity to raise the funding that I need for the mission. The trip will be fully funded when we reach a goal of $2200. Any amount beyond that, I will be using to bring Sporting Goods items to the children in Haiti. From what I hear, that brings them the most joy!

Every donation is important and will enable me to be present and help others in need. Would you kindly consider making a donation? Also, I would appreciate your willingness to share this with others who may want to participate.

Thank you all so much!
