Dear friends and family,

I am writing to let you know about an exciting opportunity I have to be part of a short-term mission team going to Belize from October 8 – 12, 2025. I will be traveling with my church, Cornerstone Baptist Church, in Darlington, South Carolina. We will be working with a ministry called “All 4 Jesus Belize” who we have partnered with for 15 years.

While there we will be providing free medical clinics to around 1,000 people in the Stann Creek district in the south of Belize. These clinics happen every three months and essentially provide primary care for these patients as well as free medicines.

But ultimately these trips are about the Gospel and we will have many opportunities to interact with the patients to either share the Good News or encourage those who are believers in their faith.

I would like to ask you to prayerfully consider partnering with me on this mission trip. I believe God is calling me to go; however, this can only happen if funding is sufficient. I love what the Bible tells us in Romans 10:13-15:

“Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”

How, then, can they call on the one they have not believed in?

And how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard?

And how can they hear without someone preaching to them?

And how can anyone preach unless they are SENT? As it is written:

“How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!”

Would you consider SENDING me? First, will you commit to pray for me? Second, will you give financially to help cover my trip expenses? The total cost is $715. The majority of the funds are due by the beginning of October but letting me know sooner will allow me to gauge progress more easily.

If you would like to be a part of my sending team, please make your check payable to “Cornerstone Baptist Church” with “Belize Medical Mission – October 2025” in the memo line. You can then send your check to me at: 803 Cheraw Drive Apt G Florence, SC 29501. All gifts given in this way are tax deductible. In addition, I am enclosing a policy from the church that details giving to short-term missions.

Thank you for prayerfully considering this request. I look forward to seeing how the Lord will move as I take this step of faith. Your prayers and financial support will be a great blessing to me, as well as many who will have an opportunity to hear and respond to the hope of the Gospel. I look forward to sharing with you about the trip when I return.

In Christ,

Grant Collins
