Dear friends and family,
I’m writing to give you the opportunity to help me bring love
and
healing to some very special children. On February 16, 2014,
I will
be leaving for 2 weeks in Cambodia with a team from Twin
Oaks
Christian Church.
Our primary mission will be to spend
time serving and loving over 100young girls who have been the victims
of sex trafficking. Through
the grace of God they have been
rescued and are now living in safe
houses run by Rapha House, a
ministry headquartered in Joplin, MO.
Their 2 locations in
Cambodia bring hope and a future to girls
ranging in age from
6-18 who have been through unspeakable horrors.
The Rapha House
staff has impressed on us what an important part of
the healing
process these visits by the American teams are.
We will also be
serving the children of Kids Club in Phnom Penh,
which is part
of Rapha House’s prevention program. Hundreds of
children gather
in the backyard of a local pastor’s home 2 days a
week for
games, Bible lessons, singing, and really just for a place
to be
loved and cared for. These children, who live in dire poverty, are at
risk of being trafficked themselves and some, in fact, have
been
trafficked in their own neighborhoods. Our church has developed a
child sponsorship program that is now sending many of these
children to school so they can escape the cycle of poverty that
oftenleads to trafficking.
In preparation for my participation
on this team I am seeking
financial and prayer support. I need
to raise over $2,500 to cover myexpenses for this trip. I’m asking you
to consider a gift of any
amount to help me represent you to
these precious children.I would
be taking your hearts with me as
I love these children and teach
them the good news that Jesus
loves them and that He can heal the
scars on their hearts and
give them hope and a future.
I appreciate your prayerful
consideration of support. If you cannot
support me financially I
would really appreciate the support of your prayers as I travel to the
other side of the world to spread the
message of Christ.
Sincerely,
Tara
