A favorite thing about Summer: IT’S MISSION TRIP SEASON! I love to see friends and churches pursuing God’s mission and leveraging their time off to get involved in the global work of God. God is in the world reconciling people to himself and has invited us to join this great mission of reconciliation (2 Corinthians 5:19-20). Mission Trips are one of the ways that we can do that.

I’m excited to join God’s mission in Sub-Saharan Africa this summer. We will be traveling June 16-27 to Zimbabwe to learn from, encourage, and train with local pastors in remote areas on the Zambia border. We have a great partner church in Zimbabwe that plants churches, supports rural pastors and church planters, and works with orphans in this country that continues to suffer through an AIDS epidemic, famine and drought, and crippling inflation and unemployment.

I would greatly appreciate your prayers for this trip.

• You can financially support this trip HERE. Our church generously pays up to 1/2 the cost of all mission trips for partners. We’ve sought to raise additional money to support rural church planters with bicycles and solar lamps and provide mattresses for an AIDS Orphanage that we will visit while there. Hunger relief is a big need as well (Read more). Any additional money will go to support these causes. GIVE NOW.
