Dear, Friends and Family
As most of you know I am a senior and Grace Christian school in Sanford, North Carolina. Grace has given me so many opportunities to help and lead in the community. I thank God for what He has done in my life through this school.
Since I am a senior, the school gives us the opportunity to go on a mission trip. This year, our class is going to the Dominican Republic on March 3-9 2019 to serve in the local villages and orphanages in and around the capital city of Santo Domingo. I am so excited to see what God has planned for me and the rest of the class while we are in the Dominican Republic.
I am writing you for two reasons, the first reason is that we need prayers and I would love to see you commit to praying not just for me but for everyone else involved in the mission trip. Second reason, I need to raise 1,500 dollars to go on this mission trip. If God leads you too, please help me go to the Dominican Republic! More importantly, your prayers are greatly appreciated. Here is how you can pray:
-
Pray for safety as we travel; smooth flight connections; and the health and safety of those going on the trip.
-
Pray that God will use our class to be the hands and feet of Jesus in the Dominican.
-
Pray that hearts of the Dominicans will be open to the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
-
Pray that God will use this trip to transform the lives of the senior class (salvation, or otherwise)
Thank you in advance for all of your support, whether it be financial or through prayer. God delights in our prayers and in our desperate need for Him. This trip will not be a success apart from Jesus, and we look forward in anticipation to what He plans to do in the hearts and lives of those in the Dominican, as well as our own.
Sincerely,
Hailey Howell
