I have accepted the call and I am ready to serve but... I cannot do that on my own. Mission work is only successful with it is done collectively for His glory. There are two major ways you can support this project: the first is through prayer and the other is through a monetary investment. One of the main things about mission work is meeting people where they are. Sometimes this mean going down the road and other times it mean flying halfway around the world. Right now, I'm working with the latter.
Flying to Zambia is not cheap, its actually around $2000-$2500. Then, while in Lusaka, there is the cost of housing and food and, of course, the random costs of travel such as the visa. But all of us allows us to physically be in the same place as the women are working with, able to lead them in Bible studies, and share in conversations with them to listen as they express their life, dreams, and struggles. Personally, I don't think you can put put a price on the value of loving people in that way. But... if you were to do so, it would be about $3000 in this instance.
From now until July 1st my support raising goal is just that, $3000. I have taken up any extra work shifts I can get, I have begun babysitting (more on that in a later post!) to raise support, and am faithful that the Lord will put it on the hearts of those who support missions to invest in this project. This is not a chance for you to enable me to serve but for you to serve through me to people you may not otherwise get a chance to reach. I ask that you might take a chance to prayerfully consider if this is something you feel led to do. If it is, you can utilize the "donate" button on the left of this page or contact me personally (jennhast7ATyahooDOTcom) to do so.
Thank you in advance for your support, whether it is prayerfully or monetarily. No work is done effectively when we do it ourselves, it is always most effective when we do it together.
