Dear Family, Friends and Partners:
Our church, First Baptist church of Macon, Missouri, is participating, in a participating in a Mission trip to Chalchuapa, El Salvador, from september 4-12, 2009. During this week, our team from First Baptist will give up the amenities of home and air conditioning to share the good news of Jesus with the El Salvadoran people. We will be working in partnership with Iglesia Bautista Bethania, a local Baptist church in Chalchuapa.
We as Christians are called up to give out utmost and go to the uttermost. There are many demands that a trip like this brings. In the providence of God He has made us dependent upon Him. It is my hope that you can share in the joy of being used by God by partnering with us on this trip.
Support is the key to participating in the body of Christ. There are many types of way to offer your support. First, I will need your financial support. The cost is $1400 which covers all travel, housing, fees for translators and drivers, van rental, and food.
Additionally, I will need you prayer support. As you pray, please remember those we will be ministering to, the heat we will be working in, and for me to have the boldness to share my faith. God hears and answers the prayers of His people. Financial support is necessary, but without your prayers this trip could be largely ineffective and powerless. That is what it means to be dependent upon the Lord. As far as your donation is concerned, it will be tax deductible, but there is some verbiage which must be specific. If you would like to give a tax dedcutible contribution by check please make your check payable to First Baptist Church Macon, and the memo section on the check should say, “El Salvador 2009″. My name cannot be on the check. Please include a small note with the check letting the church know that the money is for Joshua Monda. Checks can either be sent to me at 18522 Koala Avenue Atlanta MO 63530 or to the church at 302 N Rutherford Macon MO 63552
If it does not matter to you whether or not it is tax deductible then please feel free to use the paypal button at the bottom of this letter and make a donation. Also if you are willing to support me in prayer please comment on this post so I know I have your prayer support.
If you have any questions or need any clarification please feel free to contact me. You Can Donate Below
