Hello family and friends!
I am so excited about this summer! I will be working with Child Evangelism Fellowship® again. This will be my 4th year as a summer missionary. I will have the opportunity to share the gospel by teaching Bible lessons, memory verses, missionary stories, and lead children to the Lord!
I accepted Jesus as my Savior on July 14, 2019. My brother Andrew led me to the Lord when he was a summer missionary with CEF® himself. He helped lead me to the Lord one Sunday at church. Since that day, I wanted others to come to know Jesus too. I am very happy to share God’s word and love with children in our communities! This summer I will be able to tell kids about Jesus again through the 5-Day Club®. A 5DC® is a vacation bible school on the road. We will go to trailer courts, fairs, campgrounds, and more. One of my favorite memories from last summer was at a trailer court when I got to help lead a 8-year-old boy to the Lord. You could see the joy and hope he had after believing in Jesus and he wanted to tell everyone there.
As you know, ministry does cost money so I am asking my friends and family to support me in the work I will be doing with CEF® this summer. Philippians 4:16-17 says, “For even in Thessalonica ye sent once and again unto my necessity. Not because I desire a gift: but I desire fruit that may abound to your account.” Many people are not able to go out and share the gospel like I will be doing this summer, but that does not mean you can’t play an important part in this ministry. Ministry is not possible without the financial and prayer support of people like you. I appreciate any support and all the prayers given on behalf of me and my team.
Support can be mailed to P.O Box 54, Argos, IN, 45601, given in person, or online.
