Mission Trip to Russia!

Hello Friends & Family!

Thank you for visiting this blog!

I have set up this blog specifically to bring you along on my journey as I prepare and travel to Russia!

Here are some more details:

I will be traveling August 13-22, 2010. Leaving Grand Rapids and flying to St. Petersburg, Russia! I will be working with a group of 30 and partnering with Orphan Outreach, Mission Network News and WAY FM! We will be ministering to orphans in Russia who may not know that they are loved, let alone loved by our Amazing Savior, Jesus Christ!

Here is my Itinerary:

The most important thing my team and I need is PRAYER!!! Please pray for the work we will be doing, the people we will be meeting and prayer that we bond as a group! God has a great plan for us and we pray that we will live out Christ's plan of love in Russia!

There will be more information coming about financial support, so please start to prayerfully consider supporting me financially! Right now I'm working on getting all my paperwork/deposit into Orphan Outreach so they can set up my donation account!

I will update on this blog to let you know how I am coming with fund-raising. I will also keep you updated as I meet my team and prepare for the trip. Photos and stories will be posted after the trip is completed!

Thanks for supporting me with your prayers (and possibly financially!!).

Grace & Peace!

Janessa ♥
