Build and dedicate wells for clean drinking water
Following a recent weather-related disaster, many families and villages are without clean, safe drinking water.
The building and dedication of a well is an event of much celebration and rejoicing. It is an outreach and a way to show the tangible love of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ and to present the gospel.
Wells are placed in front of churches when possible.
We are raising funds to have wells built, and will dedicate and celebrate them on our trip.

Leave a Legacy
You long to leave a legacy, to do something important in your name, or to commemorate the memory of a loved one.
All donations are appreciated.
When you donate $1000 to cover the cost of a well, it can have your name on it! The brown fabric in this photo and the yellow fabric in the previous photo is covering a plaque that would bear your name, the name of your loved one, or your organization's name.
Rescue young women from trafficking
The host church goes into the red-light district and ministers to the young women there, who were tricked, abducted, or sold. They hold Bible studies for the girls.
There are seven young women from the Bible study who are waiting to come out. We are raising money to purchase their freedom. The cost is $1,000 per girl; $7,000 total.
Once free, the girls are taught how to sew and earn a living sewing clothing. They become part of the church.

Coaching Fundraiser
Do you have a big decision to make, that you just can't seem to make?
Do you have a frustrating relationship in your life?
Is there something that has been weighing on your mind?
Do you have a phobia that you'd like to be free of?
Aline is a master certified life coach for parenting and family relationships. She can coach you to make any decision (without advice), coach through an issue, coach you through one aspect of any relationship, or clear a phobia for a donation of $100. It will be a one-hour virtual meeting.
Aline normally only offers coaching in packages, after a free consultation. This is a special offer for a single session to raise money for missions!
This photo is of Aline after receiving some really great coaching.
Why Donate?
"Ugh! Another mission trip fundraiser!" Aline used to think as she threw the letter in the trash.
She didn't donate to mission trips, not even when it was her child's church small group leader or babysitter. When she did donate, she did so in lieu of a tithe.
Finances were always tight, and she felt she was already doing more than enough by tithing.
One day, she got a hold of a teaching that said that if her finances were bitter (they were!), it was because she was eating her seeds. Seeds are bitter! The Bible prescribes the way to abundance.
First, bring the full tithe into the storehouse (Malachai 3:8-12). One purpose of the tithe is to rebuke the devourer. While in Bible times the devourer was locusts and mice, today the devourer is car repairs and hospital bills. Aline and Garth switched their tithe to a full tithe.
Second, sow seeds for multiplication into fertile ground. Aline and Garth started donating to visiting pastors, revival, and missionaries.
They have received many blessings. They are completely debt free. Both of their kids are active in faith and church at ages 17-20. All because they followed this plan.
Mark 3:20: "Others, like seed sown on good soil, hear the word, accept it, and produce a crop—some thirty, some sixty, some a hundred times what was sown.”
What blessings could be in store for you from sowing into fertile ground?
