Hey everyone!
I hope you all are doing well! It’s hard to believe that this is my senior year of high school and Im so excited for the next chapter in my life as I have recently been accepted into the Institute for G.O.D.!
I would like to let you all know about an amazing opportunity I get to participate in – a Summer Internship with Global Outreach Developments International. This is a mission trip that allows me and other young adults to be a part of community service and development in different regions around the world. This will be a forty day mission trip starting in June and ending in July. I will start the trip with training and service in Nashville, to El Salvador, and then to the East African countries of Uganda and Kenya. Ever since I was a young girl I have been waiting for my turn to participate with G.O.D. International on a summer-long mission trip. I’ve heard from so many people who have gone on this trip who have testified to God changing their life and perspective as well as seeing an impact in the lives of those they served. I hope to return from this trip as a woman who is more confident and motivated to continue the Lord’s work!
Ever since my first trip to El Salvador in ninth grade, I have been inspired to study Spanish the last three years in order to communicate effectively cross-culturally. I have been able to work with the latin community in Nashville and this past school semester I have had the privilege to help translate for an ELL class for Spanish speakers.
Over the past few months I’ve been earning money and putting it aside for this trip. I need to raise $8,000 by April 30, 2025 which will cover my travel, housing, food, and supplies towards the service projects we will do in the different regions. I have already raised $1,000 through refereeing and babysitting gigs and I’m trusting God to provide the rest. I know I have a supportive network around me, and I wanted to invite you to help answer that prayer.
Also, please keep me in your prayers. Prayer is just as important as financial support. Pray that I am willing to do whatever God asks of me even if I'm uncertain of my abilities. Additionally, pray for God to give me the sight to see those he wants me to give special attention to in ministry.
Please consider donating towards my trip to give me the chance to serve God’s precious people.
Thank you for your support!
Sincerely,
Blessing Davis
