A message from our daughter,...

Dear Friends and Family,

I hope this message finds you well! I’m reaching out to share an incredible opportunity that I have been blessed with and to ask for your support in making it possible. This October, I have the chance to go on an 8th-grade field trip to Washington, D.C., Gettysburg, Lancaster, and Philadelphia—where I will experience history, government, and faith in action firsthand.

This trip is more than just a journey—it’s an opportunity to learn, grow, and see God’s hand in shaping of our nation. Through this experience, I hope to gain a deeper understanding of our country’s history and the role faith has played in its foundation.

This trip is more than just sightseeing—it’s a chance for me to:
✅ Visit historic landmarks like the U.S. Capitol, White House, and Supreme Court
✅ Explore world-class museums, including the Smithsonian and National Museum of African American History & Culture
✅ Honor those who served at the Lincoln Memorial, Arlington National Cemetery, and more
✅ Walk through the battlefields of Gettysburg, learning about the sacrifices made for our nation
✅ Experience the rich heritage of Lancaster and the faith-centered way of life of the Amish community
✅ Discover Philadelphia’s role in the founding of our country, including the Liberty Bell and Independence Hall
✅ Deepen my understanding of history, government, and civic engagement through a biblical lens

This trip means so much to me, but the cost—including travel, lodging, meals, and admissions—adds up quickly. I want to make sure I don’t miss out on this life-changing experience due to financial limitations.

That’s why I’m asking for your help. Any donation, big or small, will go directly toward covering the cost of the trip and making this dream a reality for me.

➡️ If you’re able, please consider donating today. Every little bit helps!
➡️ If you can’t donate, sharing this with others would mean the world to me.

Thank you so much for your kindness and support. Your generosity will allow me to learn, grow, and experience history in a way that textbooks simply can’t provide—strengthening my faith and understanding of God’s hand in our nation’s story.

With gratitude,
Charlie
