Houston & Greece, Let’s Go!

The details, (for the most part) are in!

Our School of Evangelism will be traveling to Houston on March 29th, and will be there through April 14th. While in Houston we will be teaming up with YWAM Houston and the ministries they have established. One of their largest ministries is Street Church, on Montrose Ave. Montrose is a traditionally homosexual district with a large homeless community, yet, the Wednesday Street Church service typically has several hundred people gathering in an abandoned parking lot. We will also have “Brothel Prayer Drives”, participate with a ministry in 5th Ward called “Hip-Hop Hope”, as well as, spend time at the ministry I came from, Shiloh.

Immediately after Houston, we’re headed to Greece. While in Greece we will be partnering with Euro Relief, a non-profit organization that provides shelter, clothing, and sanitation on the island of Lesvos. Our group of 20 has committed to three weeks of work, which requires us to divide into multiple groups that will provide round-the-clock assistance on the island. We will be assisting in the area of tent repairs, and medical attention, as well as, passing out supplies like food, clothing, sleeping materials, and bathroom essentials. Anywhere needed, we are available.

Next, we will be going to Athens for the remaining 8 days to partner with a ministry that concentrates their focus on drug abuse, sex-trafficking, and homelessness in the streets. From what I have been told, this ministry only goes out from sunset to sunrise.

Needless to say each location will present its own set of issues and obstacles while there, some we can prepare for, others will be unexpected. An invaluable necessity for us while there, is prayer. Please, it is the group’s, and myself’s first line of defense. What if the success of our trip was determined by what we were praying into right now? Also, we are still lacking finances for our trip. It is $3000 per missionary, and there are 22 of us going. Any amount, any way, is greatly appreciated. It does not go unnoticed. Please be obedient, and simply ask God what capacity He wants you to participate through. If there are any questions, ideas, thoughts, or concerns, please reach out. My information is on the “About” page, and ways to help are on the “Support Me” page.

It is a privilege to be partnering with you, and I can’t wait to share all God is doing in this desperate situation that is oozing with opportunity for Him to show up, and show out. He is still a miracle worker and His plans always involve reconciliation, 2 Corinthians 5:19,20. To all the world.

Until next time.
