Greetings!
Greetings in Christ Jesus! I pray all is going well for you and you had a blessed Easter. With the arrival of Spring, things start to get extremely busy for us.
2010 is a special year for Teen Mission, USA. Not only is TM celebrating its 40th Anniversary, but the Mission Journeys outreach ministry is enjoying its 25th year.
We have some exciting announcements in this newsletter. Please continue to pray for us as we head further into 2010. THANKS again for your prayers, support and encouragement.
In Him,
Greg Herriford (Executive Director/Teen Mission, USA) gregh@teenmission.org |

TM, USA, Launches New Ministry Project in Belize
Dan & Toni Underwood leading New Initiative
Since 2006, the leadership of Teen Mission, USA, has been praying about expanding the Mission Journeys by starting one or more Teen Mission "mission locations." This would involve a TM staff member living in a location year-round and helping nationals and churches in ministry.
 Last May, Dan Underwood approached Ken and Greg about the possibility of working together on such a project in the Central American country of Belize.
The plan is that Dan and his wife Toni (pictured left) would begin by working with a few existing churches he met with last summer, then plant some new churches and eventually establish a ministry center outside of Belize City. They will serve as hosts for our short-term mission teams beginning in 2011.
Dan is 52 and brings over 30 years of ministry experience with him into this project. He commented, "The Lord has opened a door of effective ministry for Toni and me in Central America. We have prayed about our personal involvement in missions for years, and we believe the Lord has - right now - provided us with a fantastic opportunity to share Jesus and show His love to the people of Belize."
Over the past year, Dan & Toni have been busy raising support and preparing for doing ministry internationally. They are hoping to be in Belize by early summer of this year.
Please keep all of us in your prayers as both the Underwoods and Teen Mission enter into this new phase of ministry. If you would like learn more about this project, please check out the following web site: www.bpministry.org. |
