More Info

I've been waiting to go on a mission trip since I was 6. Once we leave on our trip at the end of May I will be 8, and that's how old my Dad said I needed to be in order to go. I remember seeing a video at our church of our middle school students and their experiences sharing the gospel,  handing out food, playing soccer and building friendships with the kids at the orphanage. I knew I wanted to be a part of that. I can't really tell you why, because I've never been there. I just knew I wanted to go. 

Having the money to be able to go is important, but my Dad and I simply want you to be a part of our trip by praying for our team and giving if you are prompted to do so. We've created this site so you can join the story. 

I will be sharing what I am learning before, during and after my trip. I am learning how to work on the computer at my school and of course learning how to write. So, check in often to read my very first blog. 

Thank you for being a part of a "first" in my life. This is going to be fun!

Giving Options: 

If you wish your donation to tax deductible please contact my Dad at [email protected] ...He can give you the details on that. If you don't need that option... please give online.
