2009! A Big Year Again

2009 will be another big year for mission trips. Brett has been taking a year long missions class at school - the first to be offered at CCHS. The trip has been in preparation for their Jamaica mission trip in June. Brett still has about $600 to raise. They have done all the fund-raising in school and sending letters. Please pray for the entire group as they prepare to leave. It has been a wonderful experience because the kids have done all the planning work for the trip.

Lauren will be interning this summer at Lakeside Church in the missions department so she will be going to Brazil. This is the same trip I went on last year and it will be a wonderful experience!! The favela area really breaks your heart. I am sure it will be a time of growth and learning and sharing the gospel with a spiritually famished area.

Lee and I are planning a trip to Ethiopia in November. The details are not specific yet but we hope to return to Achebar where Lee brought water last year.

Thank you for praying for us this year!
