Mission Trip to Rwanda Africa

I will be heading out on a Mission Trip to Rwanda this year, July 7th 10 17th.  We will be going with ZOE ministries, a group led by Greg Jinks, we have had a long term relationship with.  A few years ago I went to Zimbabwe with this exciting United Methodist Mission Organization.  While there we will connect with the Giving Hope Empowerment program which we support as well as be a part of the dedication of an entire Secondary School a family in our Church helped make happen.  The core focus of the Giving Hope program is to empower orphans and child led families to become self sufficient and the purpose of the school is to create teachers who can educate the people of Rwanda, both nation changing ministries.  Prayer, faith, and walking with Christ will undergird the whole trip as we connect our very real faith with very real needs as Jesus has taught us.  Pray for us as we get ready and pray and see if God is leading you into something as wonderful as this.  Teresa Sherwood, our mission director is also going, as will many others including a United Methodist Church in Florida that has partnered with us and ZOE ministries to “Make Disciples of Jesus Christ who will love God, love others, and serve the World!”  If you are thinking about going or would like more information then email Teresa at teresas@firstmethodistmansfield, or email me at miker@firstmethodistmansfield.org.  For me my trip to Africa 3 years ago was life changing, and I pray that journey impacted the lives of others as well.
