Hello Dear Friends and Family,
I am pleased and honored to share with you some exciting news! For a while I have felt God’s calling on my heart to serve overseas. However, it was not until I learned of a unique opportunity in
Bulgaria, to serve as a teacher, that it was confirmed in my heart. After several weeks of prayer, I applied for the teaching position and was hired as a teacher at Sofia Christian Academy for the
2015-2016 school year.While overseas, I will be serving with the organization Mission to the World. Sofia Christian Academy is associated with Mission to the World. While there, I will be overseeing the education of missionary children from various organizations. I will be one of two full-time teachers working at the school and personally I will be instructing five different grade levels, specializing in English and literature.
Along with teaching at the school, I will also be helping in various additional local ministries, alongside current team members. At present there is a significant need for ministerial help in Bulgaria and therefore my present objective is to be overseas by the beginning of September. If you are feeling God’s call to partner with me in this ministry, there are two ways that you can do so. First, I am in serious need of financial support. Since, I will be serving as a missionary, I am required to raise
my own funds for travel costs, as well finances to cover administration, ministry costs, and insurance, along with all of my living expenses while overseas.
My current need is: $31,050.47 – No, that is not a typo. Although this is a large figure, this amount is
recommended for a missionary serving with Mission to the World for ten-months and for the most part I was not able to modify their budget. Regardless of this though, I strongly believe that since God has called me to Bulgaria, he will provide. For more clarification, only about a third of this sum will need to be raised by the time of my departure; whereas the larger amount is required to be pledged. If you would like to give to my ministry in this way, donations can be given online at donations.mtw.org - my account number for reference is: #11442.
A second, and equally important way in which I need assistance is through prayer. For more specific details on this see please the prayer points listed below:
• God’s provision for financial support before leaving for Bulgaria.
• Smooth and easy access of required documentation needed for my visa.
• Peace and patience throughout the upcoming months of transition.
• Positive closure to my current summer nanny position.
In advance I would like to thank you for your support, encouragement, and prayers. They mean so very much! If you would like to continue to receive updates on the progress of my journey feel free to
