Friends, I am extremely excited to announce that this summer (July 6th-16th) I am going to India!! My church (Freedom Fellowship) and an organization called e3Partners sends a team to India each summer, and although a thousand reasons were running through my head not to go, I still found myself writing my name and email on the sign up list. My team and I will be visiting villages that reside in the state Maharashtra, and we will be planting home churches there. This will be a journey of new experiences for me, so your prayers are a huge help.

Also, as you probably know traveling to the other side of the world does not come with a small price. So, if you feel led I'm taking donations on this site or checks made out to 'e3Partners Fund at Pure Charity' can be sent to me at: 351 E North St. New Braunfels, TX 78130, and I will deposit them to my fundraiser myself. I'd recommend donating directly through Pure Charity (the code for my trip is in17f, and you'll see my and my team mates fundraisers there) because this way you are eligible for a tax return, and it makes the process a lot quicker. Anything helps, but please do not feel pressured to donate. Above all, prayers for this trip are the number one priority whether that be for our safety, well being, that things would run smoothly, that people would be forever changed, etc...

I've never been more ecstatic for something in my life and hope you guys will support me through this new adventure. For my friends who love me a little extra though, please do not post anything about my trip on social media. Because I am traveling to India for evangelism, there is a possibility that my visa could be denied and social media is now a large cause for that.

Anyhow, if you have any further questions, please contact me by texting/calling me at (830)765-6846 or my email is: joynboykin@gmail.com. Also Facebook Messenger is good way for communication. I'd be more than happy to fill you in more about this trip as you are just as large as a part of this as I am. Thank you for your consideration. Love you all lots!
