Love this creative video from Bethel Church in Fargo, ND.

Now I just need to find an opportunity to use it!

Thanks to Mark Wilson for linking me to it originally

When I first started fundraising for my Swaziland trip back in late December, I had no idea how long it would take to raise the $3,000 initial funds needed to lock in my place on our district team. Well, as of today, I’m there!

THANK YOU to the many of you who have been praying and supporting financially for me to take part in this Swaziland adventure in October! I do still need to raise some additional funds for travel expenses and food, but I’m thrilled to announce that I have reached my $3,000 mark in just-over 3-months!

I also want to share a sort of “gallery” here of the numerous projects I had the privilege of working on as a part of this fundraising. I had a blast putting together numerous design-projects over these last few months in an effort to raise the funds. Those projects along with numerous other-gifts were answers-to-prayer for this goal! THANK YOU!

Another donation this morning put me at the 85% mark of my personal fundraising goal for my Swaziland trip!

I’m still looking for a few more design-related jobs that can help me get to 100% and beyond (extra funds will be used for travel/food/etc expenses on the trip).

Visit my Swaziland page for more information on my trip and details about how I can help YOU to help ME get to Swaziland!

Another gift this afternoon put me at 63% of my fundraising goal ($3,000) for my October trip to Swaziland, Africa!

I have been humbled and overwhelmed at each gift and am continually thankful for the way the Lord continues to provide for this trip through some graphic-related jobs AND other gifts from friends and family!

If you haven’t heard, I need to raise $3,000 for a mission trip to Swaziland, Africa that I will be joining my District Team on in October. While we are there, we will be providing a Pastor’s Conference plus doing work at the college and visiting local churches and outreach points.

I haven’t been out of the country since my Haiti trip in 2007 and am truly looking forward to this opportunity to serve the Lord and His Church on this trip!

While in “fundraising mode”, any design-related work I’m able to do right now is going directly toward my fundraising goal. If you, or someone you know, needs a logo, flyer, postcard, business card, etc. designed – please consider me!

I’ve just finished a few projects in the last couple of days that I’m excited about and thrilled to have had a part in creating!

In case you didn’t know, I’m going to Swaziland in October as a part of a district team that will be there for 2 weeks. More information on what we’ll be doing is available here on my Swaziland page.

As of today, February 2, I am now at 47% of my fundraising need to participate in this mission trip!

I am so grateful for each gift that has come in to support me in this adventure and opportunity to serve Christ’s church. I am excited to participate in the “pastor’s conference” we will be doing while in Swaziland.

At this almost halfway point in my fundraising goal, I am still in need of individuals and families to help me. If you would like to help me reach my $3,000 goal, would you prayerfully consider donating any amount. Click here for information about how you can give.

Being that I don’t have a way to work more hours for “overtime” as a pastor, I’m also offering my computer-graphics ability as another way of trying to raise my needed funds for this trip. I just finished designing a unique prayer card for a missionary friend of mine that will be serving in Papua New Guinea. If I can help you with a project (t-shirt design? stickers? graphic? postcard? business card?) please don’t hesitate to contact me – I would LOVE to help you with something as you consider making a donation towards my trip!
