Hello friends!

I have been blessed with an opportunity to go on a short-term mission trip with a group of young adults from Watermark Church that I have been actively involved with over the past 2-3 years. I am excited to be going to Ethiopia to spread the word of Jesus Christ to those who have not heard. God has grown me a lot personally and spiritually over the past few years and I am overjoyed that this is the next journey He is leading me on to make Him known throughout the earth!

Watermark Community Church is joining e3 Partners Ministry in July/August 2016 in the Oromo Region of Ethiopia. We are partnering with local Ethiopian Christians to outreach, build relationships, and share Christ with Ethiopians who have never heard the name of Jesus. The vision of e3 in Ethiopia is to add to the number of those who believe and to grow with the planting of churches within the unreached peoples of the Arsi Oromo. We will be helping them with their vision!

But we can't do this alone... We need your help! It takes a team to tackle this vision!

First, the most important need is for your PRAYERS for the spiritual battles that lie ahead and for the work that God will do through this effort. Second, your help is needed to cover part of the cost for this trip.

The total trip cost is $3,889 (+$75 for a few extra vaccinations). Would you prayerfully consider investing in this project with me and helping me reach this goal?

***UPDATE*** I am thankful to say that God has generously provided through others and I am now fully funded for the trip! But there is still a need for everyone else going on the 4 different trips to Ethiopia. As of May 5th, there is still currently a need of $47,000 total. Anything that I raise over my goal will go to help fund their goal, so no money goes un-used! I would be so thankful for continued support of our team! *****

If you are not able to give financially, we are all still in a great need of your prayers for this trip! For our preparation, our time there in Ethiopia, and also that God will provide all the funds needed for those going! Please let me know if you will be supporting me in this way so I can keep you updated on how God is working through your prayers!

"Devote yourselves to prayer, being watchful and thankful. And pray for us, too, that God may open a door for our message, so that we may proclaim the mystery of Christ..." -Colossians 4:2-3

"For this reason, ever since I heard about your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for all God's people, I have not stopped giving thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers."  -Ephesians 1:15-16

"Then Jesus came to them and said, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age."" -Matthew 28:18-20
