Last year, God led me to Haiti where I had the honor to speak at the first women's conference in Cabaret. That experience was one of the most profound of my life. God blessed me with the opportunity to serve women in that community by sharing His truth with them.
Since returning, God has led me to serve spiritually broken women in Louisville, KY through an organization called Scarlet Hope. Every Thursday night, we go into strip clubs in the Louisville area to bring the hope and love of Jesus to women in the adult entertainment industry. God has given me a burden for women who are in spiritual bondage here in Louisville as well as the women in Haiti. Jeremiah 29:11 says "For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." More than anything, I want these women to know that God loves them and wants to give them hope!
I was asked to return to Haiti this fall to speak again at the women's conference. This past May, just days before I was to book my tickets to go, I received a call from my Mom letting me know that her latest post-cancer scan revealed lesions on her spleen and chest. My Mom survived pancreatic cancer and breast cancer back in 2007. Most pancreatic cancer patients do not make it past the 5 year point. With the latest results, statistics were telling us that the odds were definitely not in her favor. After much prayer and counsel, I decided not to go to Haiti. We waited and prayed all summer knowing that she would receive her diagnosis after being rescanned the first week of August. My husband Chris and I had determined that if she did indeed have cancer, the boys and I would indefinitely move back to California to take care of her. On August 8th, we received word that my Mom's lesions had either shrunk or disappeared and no longer resembled cancer! Praise God!
Now that my fall will look different than I anticipated, I feel that God is still calling me to go to Haiti this year. We leave Sunday, September 15th and return on Saturday, September 21st. This trip is less than a month away! Needless to say, I am getting a very late start on fundraising.
I am investing in this trip personally, but would love to have your support as well. I am writing to see if you would consider partnering with me through prayer and/or financial support. Prayer would be much appreciated as I prepare for the trip and while I am in Haiti. Please pray over this trip and the women's conference. Pray that God will speak into the hearts of the women that I will meet. Pray that they will come to know the hope and love of Jesus.
Please prayerfully consider financially partnering with me on this journey. As a financial partner, you will be as much a part of this mission trip as I am. I know that God will provide the means necessary for this trip, but scripture compels me to share this blessing with my brothers and sisters in Christ as potential partners who will "send forth" and share in the harvest. Financial support can be sent prior to September 1st. The total cost of the trip is $1,100 per person. Please give as you feel led to, no contribution is too small. Words cannot express how excited I am to literally be sent by friends and family to this amazing country which is full of people desperately needing the hope of Jesus Christ.
Please let me know how I can pray for you!
Blessings!
