I just posted but I have a prayer request.
I have felt called to missions, and recently made the EXCITING decision to go on a mission trip with an organization called Global Expeditions, a part of Teen Mania Ministries. I have always had a burden in my heart to minister to girls that have been involved in sex trafficking. Global Expeditions is giving me that opportunity. LORD WILLING, I will be going to Nepal, South Asia!!!
In Nepal undernourished Dalit children who have no homes, wander in cities and villages. People chant and pray to a false wooden idol worshipping in vain. The Nepali are selling their girls into sex slavery. Seven out of ten of these girls will become HIV positive. These people need love, they need to know God is a healer, redeemer and closest friend. Their hearts are so open to the healing, rescuing and genuine love. I will be ministering (Lord willing) through performing an evangelistic drama for crowds of people and afterwards preaching the gospel, and praying for the sick. Following up in small groups I will be inviting people to put their trust in Christ as I share my testimony with them. I will even be able to visit Rehabilitation Centers for girls who have been rescued from Brothels (A brothel, also known as a whorehouse) and prostitution and encourage them in small Bible studies and friendship building group activities.
It will be a challenging, life changing experience not only for the Nepali people who get to experience The Lord's love for the first time, but me and I am so excited to see what the Lord has in store!
Although I cannot accomplish this task alone. So I am asking you to be part of this mission trip with me, and I'm asking Quest...you....to support me in prayer - just that the funds are reached and God provides in that, and that The Lord prepares my heart for this trip.
Your SUPPORT IN PRAYER plays a huge role in this journey
That is so awesome!! Mission trips like that are absolutely eye opening!! You become aware everyday of the many little gifts God has given you...where you live, who you live with, and most importatnly the fact that God blessed you with the privilege to know Him and have a relationship with Him. With all those gifts, this joy will overflow from you to those people you are reaching. I was called to missions the summer before my junior year after an incredible trip to Belize! I will definitely be praying for you and can't wait to see how God works through you and changes you!!
