Support Pastor Jeff's Mission: Change for Trevor
Donation protected
This is Pastor Jeff at New Beginnings In Christ in Garfield, GA. In November of 2023 I went on my first mission trip to Uganda, Africa and it has completely changed my life. I feel as if I left half of my heart there. I realized how truly blessed I was and how much need there is in the world, especially for our brothers and sisters in Christ in Uganda. We have about 5 different ministries we help over in Uganda and when I came back I was trying to decide which one God wanted me to continue to support. But God always seems to have other plans, and He did for me.
A young man by the name of Trevor reached out to me from my son's YouTube channel and asked to be my friend and partner with him in prayer for his ministry in Uganda. I just knew it was God sending him to me. He is a 16 year old young man who is taking care of 40-60 children everyday... Some live with him and his parents, some come over everyday... They eat a meal, learn reading, writing, & math, they learn the Bible, worship, and dance. He had been helping these children for 3 years without support, and he had been praying for Jesus to send him some help, and I knew then that God wanted to use me to answer Trevor's prayer. So since January of this year I started personally supporting Trevor & his ministry, then our ministry decided to help, and then the Lord gave me an idea, I call it "Change for Trevor", I now collect pocket change and I am using it to change Trevor & his children's lives.
Since this started we have been able to take the children from eat porridge once a day, to now having 2 meals a day, their favorite is rice and beans. We have purchased a white board for teaching, a stove for cooking and baking cakes, bunk beds for sleeping, a motorcycle for travel, and have rented 2 additional rooms so they can have more space to do their activities, and a lot more. They are so happy and full of joy and giving all praise to God for what he is doing.
I am headed back on January 4th, 2025 for 3 weeks with my son, Jeffrey, and our team from Church... My main focus this trip is to find Trevor and the children a bigger property and house so more kids can sleep over and his ministry can function better...many of the kids are homeless. My goal is to rent it for 6 months to a year depending on the price and how much I raise. The rest of the money I raise will be to support myself and my son on the trip and support the other ministries we are going to see, My goal is $10,000. I have raised $5,000 so far. Any amount will help and be truly appreciated.
Thank you for supporting me last year and please pray for us to have a fruitful trip this year as we spread the gospel and the love of Jesus to the world
Praise Jesus!
