Hello friends and family:

It is hard to believe but I am now in my senior year at Ben Lippen. At school, I have been running cross country, playing softball, and participating in choir and theatre. I have also been singing on the worship team at two churches.

Last year, I had the wonderful opportunity to go with my school on a mission trip to Honduras, where God showed me many things. This year, I have another opportunity to go on a short-term mission trip to Costa Rica in March. We will be building a house for a family who does not have a home, and we will also be doing skateboarding ministry for the children in the community. I have the privilege to go on this trip with some of my closest friends and to grow together in Christ with them as we serve together. I pray that the Lord will open my eyes to something new on this trip and allow me to touch the hearts of those who may not know him.

Would you please pray that God will prepare us and bless us and use us for his glory?

The entire cost of the trip is $2600. While I will personally contribute to it and my family will help, I am trusting God to raise $1300 toward it. Would you consider giving a gift to partner in this work?

Thank you,

Eve Smither
