Getting involved...

Greetings, I hope this newsletter finds you well,
We are your neighbors and/or friends, Ellaysia "Ellay" Butler and I (her mother, Lysne Nolte) are planning to get involved with a mission trip this July.

For my daughter, Ellaysia's 15th birthday we didn't just want to celebrate with a traditional cake and ice cream birthday. We wanted a way to bond as a mother and daughter and what better way to do that? A trip to Paris, Cabo or someplace fun and nice. No... Not us, our hearts are filled with a calling to help others. We chose a North Carolina missionary group, called giveandteach.org ran by Mike and Carol Claypool based in a small village Santa Rosa, Guatemala.

Ellaysia and I will be selling flip-flops for $15 ($3 s/h) in our community and we are also selling T-shirts as a broader way to get support for building material for a home, chicken coop, stove and a water filter. Of course the more money we make the more we can help the people (mostly children) in Guatemala.

Your Gift Provides...

$40 Water Filter that will allow a family to have clean drinking water and help eliminate illnesses.
$150 Energy Efficient Wood Burning Stove. Many families cook over open fires indoors without proper ventilation. A energy efficient wood burning stoves saves money and provides cleaner air to avoid many health risks for the whole family.
$250 Build a Chicken Coop with all the supplies including;& 25 chicks, feed, vitamins, etc. for a family to begin raising chickens. This will help provide a sustainable source of food and income for the family.
$3000 Material and Construction to Provide a New home for a Guatemalan family. Mission teams, in partnership with the family build the homes with the materials provided. Some furnishes are also provided.

Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions. Thank you in advance for being involved and supporting our efforts! Many blessings to you and your family. God bless you and your family this year.
