Peru

Okay,

I have been praying about this ever since I heard about it in my college and career class. The trip is expensive with an overall cost of $3,100. That includes travel, deposit, and specific supplies I would need. I used this as an excuse not to go. But, because I have been praying and seeking God, I was asking about this and money.

I got an email from my pastor asking me if I had thought about the Peru trip and if I committed to raising money, my church and pastor would help out too.

God answered my prayers. I felt helpless about raising that much money all by myself, but God has given me the opportunity to go if I committed myself.

You may be asking what on earth am I talking about. Well, here's the answer. I have been talking about going on a mission trip to Peru the first two weeks of June. Our church is joining college students from around the nation to go to Trujillo, Peru.

Oh Boy am I excited! I have to pay a $200 deposit and I have that already. I just need support from my family and my friends. I believe this is a big deal and I want to make the most of it for God.

I have been studying Paul and how he preached the gospel and how he found great joy in it. I want a piece of that.

Anyrate, I have to apply for a passport and all that stuff, plus I need to actually tell my parents. So mom, if you are reading this, great! Call me and we can talk about it.

Until later,
Seale

Support you have my dear one.

Prayer is continuous.

God's Will be done in this endeavor.

Make your list of what needs to be done, what needs to be achieved, and what you will require. Work towards it faithfully.

God wants you to go and if you commit yourself to Him and his Witness, then your list will be filled with checkmarks of completion. ;)
