Prayer Letter
December 20th 2009
Dear Family & Friends,
I wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New!! I pray that you all have had a great year but even more, I pray that you all have an even greater, more blessed year coming up!! God has only the best in mind for everyone of you, so let Him do His thing!!
I am currently in my second year of studying International Business at Humber College in Toronto. I work security and maintenance at the Toronto Airport Christian Fellowship Church. And I help lead the youth at the church as well.
Darrin Clark, the kids ministry pastor at the church, recently asked me to join him on a trip to his homeland, Zimbabwe over in Africa. Darrin is currently working on a water filter project in Zimbabwe. The projects main vision is to set up homemade water filters in every house, school, and building while spreading God’s love to every individual. These filters are homemade out of local materials and they purify the water to 99% clean. Eventually, Darrin’s vision is to see water filters and God’s love all over Africa. As you might have guessed, this is a huge project that can only be done with God’s help!! Darrin has traveled to Zimbabwe a few times now and God has set him up supernaturally with tribal chiefs who want him to come to speak and set up filters in amongst their people . God has already done so much with this project!! Darrin has asked me to help him with this project. He wants me to travel with him to Zimbabwe and assist him in any way I can. Darrin is one of the few men I really look up to. I consider him to be a mentor and a close friend of mine. I am so honoured that he would ask me to help him. And I am even more honoured to be able to help Darrin fullfill his dream God has given him!! God has given my permission to help Darrin. This is not a one time missions trip. We will be traveling to Zimbabwe many times per year. This trip will cost around $3,000 for each person. It is expensive but worth every penny!! I would greatly appreciate your pray and financial support!!
You wanna know something sweet about this project??? Because we are setting up water filters, we get to “sneak in” and share God’s love to Zimbabwe where Christians are not usually allowed. God is all over this project, and we get to be in the middle of it!! That’s exciting!!
