$2,000 Raised!

Today was actually quite eventful. I heard a lecture during Music 100 time about the music of Argentina, which will be very helpful as I travel there from a music standpoint.

Also, today I received another $200 in donations from members of the church family, bringing my total to $2,000! Thanks so much everyone!!! God Bless!

Another $100 today!

I returned to school on Sunday, but the support is still coming in! I got a $100 donation today, bringing my total to $1,800. Thanks so much!

Outstanding Day!

Today I got the first round of support from my letters - an overwhelming $665. Special thanks to the members of my church family who are already giving generously from the heart! I have now officially reached the $1,000 mark (and then some) I needed for April 1st. I now have a grand total of $1,170 in support! Thank you so much to everyone who has supported me! I can already tell God is going to do great things through me for the Argentine people!!

God Bless!

April 1st deadline

By April 1st, I must reach $1,000 in donations. I am still $500 away. People received their letters today so hopefully I will get that support in by the 1st! Pray for me!

Another Step Closer - 10% Mark Reached!

What I will be Doing in Argentina

Many wonder what I will be doing in Argentina this summer.  Basically, I will be working with college students in Buenos Aires and La Plata, which combined have a total of 800,000 students.  We will work all summer to build relationships with these students, to hopefully share with them the love of Jesus Christ and tell them what He did on the cross for us and in our lives.  We will lead English clubs, speak in several of their classes, and participate in several evangelistic outreaches.  I am so excited to see how God can use me in the lives of these Argentine students!

Church Presentation

Today I made a presentation in at my home church, Elizabeth Memorial United Methodist Church, and the response was overwhelming! I raised $225 on the spot, with countless others promising money. Praise Jesus for the kindness of my Church family!
