Guatemala Mission Trip

Donation protected
Hello Friends!
My name is Michelle Pettet and I am currently a sophomore at Concordia University of Irvine. I am majoring in biology, pre-med. I am super excited to announce that I am going with a team of 15 to Guatemala on March 4th for a mission trip. During this trip, we will be engaging with the people of El Progresso to share Christ's love by participating in Bible studies and building relationships with the village youth.

When I am in El Progresso, I’ll experience a new an environment with new people and surroundings. I believe this trip will allow me to open up my eyes and experience what God has in store for me. I will have the opportunity to build relationships and share my faith with the people in Guatemala. I am thrilled to see God change the lives of so many different people, including mine during this trip.

While God has opened up a door for me to develop a greater heart of compassion for his people around the world, the exciting part is that you will be able to share in this compassion in several ways. First, you can help pray for me and my fellow team.  We will need prayers that God will prepare us for our visit and bless our efforts as we  minister to the people of El Progresso. We will also need prayers that our financial needs will be met. At this time we need to raise $1800 for the entire trip. I will need to pay $750 to cover for the airfar by January 27th, then I will have to pay $1050 by February 24th.  I know it is a lot, but I know that it can be met.

While I am extremely excited about this upcoming trip this spring, I know that I cannot accomplish this task alone. I am asking you to please support me with your prayers throughout these couple months as I prepare for and participate in this mission trip. Another way you can help is providing financial support. Please make checks to "Concordia University" and in the sub-catergory, write "Guatemala Initiative", and then my name.  You can mail the check to the adress below.

I am also asking you to be a part of this mission trip by investing in my life and in the lives of the people that I will have the opportunity to meet in El Progresso.

During the next several weeks, I will be working very hard to raise the finances to go on this mission trip. I need to cover the entire cost of my trip through the generosity of others, as well as through the fundraising work that I do.

Thank you so much for your consideration. Your prayers and support throughout the next months are greatly appreciated!

May God bless you richly!
