In 2009 I took a huge leap of faith, resigning from my long held staff position as a worship pastor and beginning this adventure called the Give Worship Project. I began traveling to many different countries to help train pastors and church leaders in the area of worship discipleship and the spiritual life of a leader. And what a ride it's been!
What I didn't anticipate was how glorious it would be on one hand and how utterly lonely it would be on the other hand. I had worked as a part of teams as a worship pastor. I was a member of a staff team and of course I had the worship and creative arts teams. I NEVER worked alone. Now I did so alot of the time. And while I have many faithful friends who pray for me, I realized I needed to build a strong team of friends who would partner with me in ministry. I needed a team.
So as I begin this next phase of ministry as a staff member with e3 Partners, I know that my first priority is to build this team. Much of my work will be similar to what I've done for the past two years, so I know how important it will be to have this team of supporters.
That's where you come in....
I need you!
1. I need a solid team of prayer warriors that not only receives periodic updates, but takes the initiative to pray for me and WITH me. I need a team of people who will seek God on my behalf and on behalf of the people I work with and serve around the world. I need people who will come pray WITH me, who will send prayers with me on trips, etc. so that I feel encouraged and strong as I travel and minister. I need a wall of protection provided by the prayers of godly women and men! And I need a team that will celebrate and rejoice with me as I return home!
2. I also need a team that will financially partner with me each and every month, supporting the ministry I do and supporting me as I do ministry. Raising this team of financial partners is one of my most important jobs as I begin my life as a missionary with e3 Partners - because without them, I cannot go. I cannot be free to devote my time to mission work and ministry. And I'm so close to raising this team of supporters.
I only need $370 more committed per month - and any amount helps! I have supporters that give amounts anywhere from $25 - $300 month! It all helps! This support gives me a firm foundation as I launch out into this new era of ministry.
It's easy to give and set up a recurring, tax-deductible gift.

Thank you for reading! I hope you'll prayerfully consider being a part of my team!
