Working together as a team

As many of you already know, I have the unbelievable opportunity to take part in a summer mission project sponsored by Cru with over 60 other students to Walt Disney World. I get the awesome opportunity to live down here in Florida and work at Disney world through the partnership that Cru has with Disney.


But more importantly, we have an incredible purpose and vision for being here this summer; we get the opportunity to share the love of Christ with tons of people. The Disney College Program attracts countless young adults from across the globe who work at Disney and then return home a semester later. This allows us to bring the message of Jesus to literally hundreds of nations, many unreachable but all accounts. I feel extremely blessed to take part in this vision and I know that it will have far reaching implications for the gospel and the kingdom of God. This opportunity is not so much for me, because I could be doing numerous other things with my summer, but this is an enormous movement that will equip the future leaders of the church and change eternal destinies the world over.

As you might imagine, raising the necessary funds is extremely challenging and many of the students have struggled to raise all the money necessary. The money donated is only to cover room and board for the mission and cost associated with ministry. We pay for all other expenses ourselves, so this is not about a moneymaking opportunity. I could have made a good amount of money if I had stayed home and gotten a job there, but that is not the purpose of my summer. As a project we are behind in funds even though I have worked hard to achieve the goal of what I needed, I would encourage you to consider giving to the project through my account. 
These gifts are tax-deductible and would be a great blessing to all of us here on WDWSP. If you are not financially able to give, I would appreciate your prayers, because with God all things are possible.
