So as part of my schooling here at Bethel I am asked to go on a missions trip in March. I had my interview about a week or so ago and the results are in! I am going to Kenya!!!! This is cool for many reasons but the two in the front of my mind are this:

1. My grandfather spent time working there.
2. I have a friend who was raised in the slums there and he served here in America for a summer as a missionary. Now I will get to honor and sow into his community. I also might get to see him; pray and cross your fingers.

While in Kenya my team will be involved in partnering with Heroes of the Nations Kenya’s largest orphanage as well as doing ministry in the slums. Bethel is a partner with this non-profit organization and has regularly been sending Bethel Students to these locations. I am super excited and honored to be a part of this rich tradition. If you would like more information you should check out these two websites: http://www.ibethelinternational.org/kenya/ and http://www.htn.org/
What’s that you ask? How can you help? Well let me tell you. I need to raise $2900 by February. My first deadline is Nov. 12th for $290. There are four ways to support me:

1. PRAY. This sounds obvious but it is still the most important. (Even if you don’t believe humor me.)
2. Send me money. My address is below.
3. Buy a sweet Kenya shirt. The picture to the left is the design and it is on a white shirt. I will get $11 dollars for every shirt you buy so get your friend to buy them too. Here is the link: http://www.cafepress.com/sodiumfree
4. Send me money and buy a shirt.

I appreciate all your prayers and support. Know that what you sow will not return void. If you have questions comments or concerns please feel free to call me. All my love.
