Dear Friends and Family,
I am thrilled to announce that I am planning to be a short-term missionary! In the past two summers I went on a short-term mission’s trip with McGregor Baptist Church to the county of Guatemala. It was a blessing to be there and share the gospel with the Guatemalan people. But this year I have the opportunity to go to another county to do something for the Lord that would help me grow spiritually and help others at the same time, also to work among Missionaries and be a blessing to others. It’s going to be a new experience for me as I trust the Lord to stretch my comfort zones and to provide for my trip.
I have been accepted by New Tribes Mission’s to be a teacher’s Aide at Key West Academy in the county of Indonesia. I will be helping teach Missionary children from grades 2nd through 12. I will be helping the main teacher in many different areas like; teaching PE, art, music, and etc or where ever she needs me to do. I am very excited about going to Indonesia, to be able to work with the kids and to share the gospel with the people of Indonesia. I will be going for six months from August to January. As departure time is soon approaching, I’d like to ask you to pray with me concerning the following:
1. Paperwork-getting my visa and booking my flight
2. Packing- That I will be able to pack everything I need.
3. Finances- I am trusting the Lord to supply the amount needed to cover the expenses of my trip beyond what I can provide. The cost of my trip is $6,730.
4. Spiritually- I am asking the Lord to produce growth and maturity in my faith in Him during this time of preparation and while I’m overseas. I am expecting six month of hard work and a great opportunity to see what missionary life is all about. I am writing to family and friends to enlist a team of prayer partners who will lift me up while I am on the foreign field. Would you commit to partner with me by praying? If so you’ll have an important part in my trip. Your prayers are very important to me.
In CHRIST,
Karen Chase
