There are 14 of us going. There are two trip leaders that work for
the CCO (Coalition of Christian Outreach). Beyond them there are
12 students going. Four of the students, me included, go to
Allegheny. We have been getting lunch on Tuesdays throughout the
semester. This picture is from Jubilee, a big CCO conference,
where everyone going to Peru was able to meet, except for a few
students who werenโt able to make it to the conference.
Here are some prayer requests and praises:
This trip was fully funded as of a few weeks ago! It has been
scary to rely on the Lord in this way, and to ask others for
money, but it has been encouraging to see how the Lord provides.
I graduate from Allegheny College May 10th, and this trip leaves
on the 11th. I am nervous about this fast transition because I
will be saying many goodbyes to many people at Allegheny. Pray
for closure and that I am able to say goodbye well.
Pray for safe travels, good team dynamics, and that we would be
able to help the community we are entering. So often, I hear the
negatives of short term missions and so please pray that we
would be able to be a blessing to those we are around and that
God would be moving and softening peopleโs hearts.
Please pray that I would be able to see how God has blessed
Peruvians in their lives.
