Mission Trip to Zimbabwe

My name is Andrew Goddard, and I am looking to depart on a two-week mission trip to Zimbabwe. Sadly, Zimbabwe is one of the most economically depressed countries, where the average salary is less than 9 dollars per day. This results in poverty, hunger, a high population of orphans, and a large need for missions. This is why I am spending two weeks in Zimbabwe with an organization called Global Encounters. Global Encounters is an organization who’s goal is to reach lost nations with basic needs such as food and water as well as spread the Gospel in accordance with the great commission.  This mission trip will love and support these children by running the equivalent of a VBS program where the kids can laugh, play games, and most importantly, learn about the Gospel. They will learn about who God is, what Christ did, and what it means to be a Christian and have hope of eternal life.  In addition, this mission trip will encourage and train young adults who have graduated from orphanages and have a heart for children's ministry. 

 However, departing on a journey like this is not free. Participants are responsible for paying for registration, airfare and any other miscellaneous expenses. Please help me generate the funds to travel to Zimbabwe. I am looking to raise 3,000 dollars to cover these expenses. Your contribution will help the children experience love, support, and the life-changing truth of who God is. Beyond that, please pray that the Word of God would convict and Lord willing save many of these Children. Also, please pray for the team at Global Encounters. Pray that we would have a strength to present the Gospel with boldness and that God would us however He so please. Thank you, and God bless.
