Official Letter

The following is the letter that I send out to people who may be interested in supporting me through prayer or financially:

In January I am going to be moving to Texas to attend School of Discipleship, a program run by Gospel for Asia, a ministry focused on sharing the Gospel with the most un-reached in the world.

The School of Discipleship Mission Statement is to assist men and women to become devout followers of Christ, and to fulfill the Great Commission by enabling them to know Jesus more fully and intimately through the careful study of God’s Word along with practical teaching and training relevant to each individual, God given calling.

I have been praying about attending this for over a year and I believe God is opening the doors for me to go.  I think this year will have a huge impact on my spiritual life and I am excited to help and learn from a ministry I am very passionate about.  In addition to that, I know I am going to be mentored by godly men and women, make new friends and have an impact on eternity!  How thrilling! 
                                

 During this 11-month program I will be working as a home-team missionary in the GFA headquarters.  For every student that works at Gospel for Asia around 150 national missionaries are able to spread the good news!  I will also be participating in Bible teaching, prayer meetings and street evangelizing.  The program will help me develop a servant’s heart, love for the Lord and a passion for missions.
The cost of this program is $850 a month and this includes housing, food, utilities, books, training and a trip to Asia to see firsthand the work going on.

I would greatly appreciate prayer (and lots of it) and any financial support you would be willing to give towards my time with School of Discipleship.  If you do decide
to become a member of my support team (sorry there won’t be any custom t-shirts available), please indicate this on the enclosed card and use the envelope to mail it in.  If you are including a check please make it out to Gospel for Asia.

If you have any questions, please feel free to call me!  My number is 320-305-0198.  You can also call Gospel for Asia at 1-800-946-2742 Ext. 3135.

Thank you so much for your time and consideration!
