Questions

Some of my friends and family have asked, " Why didn't you start earlier so raising this money wouldn't be such an emergency?"  Well, ok, I'll admit I can be a little dramatic and can procrastinate and this is the first time I've done anything like this, and I love to type in bold and red.  Truthfully, (here comes a dr joe confession) if I had been a better steward of my money over the past 20 years, I'd be able to cover the whole cost myself.  Ouch.  I hate admitting when I've messed up in life.  I'm still messing up.  I know God loves me and will continue to work on me and through me.  The other side of this situation is that God is providing all of you with an opportunity to fulfill His commission to spread the "Good News" throughout the world.  I pray that the Lord blesses those of you who can give and those of you who can't.  I've been touched and humbled by your response.  Jesus loves you.  I know that because I feel His love for you.

Guatemala Countdown
9 Days!
 
Wow!  The Lord has been faithful.  You all have responded to His call!

44 people have contributed $2300.00!

We have a budget of about $4900.00 for the medical team:

Medicine, Supplies, Equipment - about $2500.00
Travel, Lodging, Food                   about $2400.00
We have so far received in donations - $3400.00

So we still need to raise $1500.00 preferably before the 8th of August. 

If 100 of you give $15 we're done.  If 200 of you give $7.50 we're done.  If more is given than we need we can buy more vitamins for these malnourished people.  We are trying to get a 3 month supply for the 400 people we estimate seeing in the clinic.  6 months would be better since we're not sure when a medical team will return to them!

Please take a moment to pray about whether God is calling you to help.  If, ( AND ONLY IF! ) He is, you can either send a check (see below) or hit the paypal button below and use a credit or debit card.  Even $5 would help. 

Most importantly please pray that we would show the love of Jesus to these desperately poor people.

Anyone who would like to donate money for our Guatemala missions trip please send your check payable to Lighthouse Wesleyan Church and write Guatemala in the message line.  Send to : Lighthouse Wesleyan Church
