Our mission trip support letter

September 7, 2008

Dear Friends,

We hope that this letter finds you and your family well and that you are experiencing God’s blessing on your life.

We are writing to share with you about an exciting opportunity that we have to serve Christ in Jamaica. From February 14-21, 2009, we will have the privilege of being a part of an American Caribbean Experience (ACE) mission team. Our team will be involved in several ministries that will include construction projects, tutoring children, and serving in local churches. We will be working with Danny’s parents, Finley and Ruby Johnson, who are full time missionaries in Jamaica.

We are very excited about this ministry but we need your help to do it. First of all, we need your prayers. Without prayer, nothing spiritual can happen. Secondly, we need to raise $3000 for our family. We hope to alleviate some of the financial burden by having local fundraisers. Please ask God if he wants you to give in support of this ministry. Your contribution would be tax deductible and receipts would be issued. Checks should be made out to Hope Fellowship and sent to: PO Box 1, Chickamauga, GA 30707. In the memo section of your check write “Jamaica mission trip”. A note accompanying your check can identify that it is to apply to the Johnson family mission trip costs, but this information should not be on the check itself.

Thank you so much for taking the time to read this letter! Please know that the money is not as important to us as your prayers are. This is our first mission trip as a family, and we believe that the Lord will use it to impact our lives (and others) in a significant way. We know that God will provide a way for us to go as he has laid this upon our hearts. It is your prayers and encouragement that will strengthen and encourage us in this mission opportunity.

God Bless,
Danny, Lynné and Abby
