1 month!

I leave for outreach in 1 month! How crazy is that? Lecture phase has flown by and I can't even believe how soon it is until we leave. I thought I would let you know a little about what we'll be doing there.
We leave July 1, and we'll be flying into the Dominican Republic. We'll stay there for a week, adjusting to the time and preparing ourselves for the rest of the trip. Then we'll take a bus ride to Port-au-prince, where we'll be staying in a refugee camp for three weeks. Then we'll be going to the YWAM base in Saint Marc for another three weeks. While in each of these places, we'll be doing various different things. We'll be running a mini DTS for the refugees, ages 8-adult. During that, we'll be teaching them on the different topics we've been learning about in lecture phase. We'll be doing some photo projects for the Voice for the Voiceless book and Unicef. We'll be filming a movie about the character of God in the midst of the devastation. We'll be doing some community and construction work. And, obviously, we'll be sharing the love of Jesus with the Haitian people. After all this, we'll head back to the Dominican Republic to share in the churches there about what is going on in Haiti. We'll be speaking about Voice for the Voiceless a lot. We don't know a whole lot yet about this part of the trip, but I'm sure it will be great.
The whole trip is going to cost $4,350. Although I have all the money I need, many of my teammates do not. We are also in need of funding for Eyes of Hope, the movie. Please contact me if you're interested in donating money. I also need some equipment, such as a backpacking backpack, extra batteries or battery packs for the Rebel xsi, a mosquito net, and possibly some better lenses. If you have any of these that you'd like to donate or let me borrow, it would be much appreciated! But most of all, we are in need of prayer. Pray that our team will grow in unity. Pray that Haiti will be encouraged by us in the midst of all their suffering. Pray for safety and health for all of us.
I'll have the trailer for the movie up soon. We're filming this week and will hopefully be done soon.

    Um, yeah. I have that - a backpack, that is. We have too many and we're getting rid of one, but you probably should've taken it while you were still here, 'cause I'm pretty sure it would cost a heck of a lot to send it to you. What do you think?
