Financial Support Needs

Hi everyone!

My online giving page with Mercy Ships is all set up now, here is a link to it:  http://mercyships-us.donorpages.com/crewmates/suzannes/  On this page it explains the options for online giving or mailing a check to the Mercy Ships base in Texas. 

Here's what's going on with fundraising.  As most of you know, everyone serving with Mercy Ships is a volunteer who raises their own support for crew fees and expenses.  To serve on the Africa Mercy for two years I will need to raise a total of $25,000.

So, I just need to ask for $1 from 25,000 of my closest friends, right!? 

Here is a breakdown of what the support will go towards:

1-  Initial costs such as my training fees for the two month On-boarding program, travel to the Texas training base, any special vaccinations, etc.

2- Monthly needs during my two year commitment.  This includes crew fees (room and board), funds set aside each month for travel, medical insurance, and other practical needs. 

So this is me- stepping out of my comfort zone and asking for you to prayerfully consider giving support. God is already teaching me so much through this process, it really is a partnership and I am very thankful for all the people who have already been so encouraging.  I know that God has led me to begin this journey- He opened the door for this opportunity and it is my job to work hard and follow Him closely.   

  Now to him who is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think, according to the power at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, forever and ever. Amen.

Ephesians 3:20-21
