Welcome to my Blog! The purposes of the this blog are twofold. The first is to glorify my Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ. All posts will attempt to do this, and please tell me if something I say is not accomplishing this purpose.
The second purpose for this blog is to keep you, the reader, up-to-date on what's going on in my life. While I am in Africa, I hope to be able to post about what's going on there. Hopefully, this will be easier than sending a mass e-mail every few days or sending an e-mail to everyone after I get back.
A little history about myself... I am a 16 year old home schooled student who feels called to Medical Missions in Equatorial Guinea, Africa. I am a Christian, and would like everyone else I know and whoever reads this blog to come to the saving knowledge of Jesus Christ. If you already have, that's great! Glad you are in the Family of God. Technically, this really isn't a history of myself, but a review of where I now stand.
I am going on a Missions Trip to Cape Verde Africa this May/June, Lord willing. The purpose of this trip is to hand out New Testament packets in the public school system there. I will be going with an organization called Preach Evangelistic Ministries, who has been going to Cape Verde for the past few years on the same type of missions trip.
This trip will cost approximately $2700, of which I have raised $1100 so far, thanks to some of my friends generous giving. While money may seem important to my being able to go, prayer for the team going to Africa is vastly more important. Without prayer, our spiritual battle with evil starts going downhill in a hurry. And espescially since we will be going into the public school system, I think we need all the more prayer. Later, I may list some more specific prayer requests for the trip.
Well, that's all for now. I'm glad you've decided to visit my blog, and I hope you will continue to do so in the future. More posts may be a little while in coming, but as I receive updates on the trip to Africa, I will post them. Thanks for praying!
A Servant of the Cross,
