Hey Friends, just a window into my life over the past few months here at the Honor Academy and about what this SUMMER is going to look like! God is SO faithful! (Thanks for the video help Sabrina!)
Why? It’s majestic landscape boasts beautiful rainforests and breathtaking mountain ranges. You wouldn’t imagine that the streets are filled with homeless children in rags, poverty, drugs, violence, sickness, and empty religious traditions. We will be in the city of Rio in favellas (slums) where we will be serving and doing dramas with a church and missionaries that have already been preparing for us all year long. (Pictures taken by Kelly Denison on the set-up trip in December 2011)
We will also serve in a nursery school where children come and are given the opportunity to learn basic hygiene, are fed three meals a day, and learn about Jesus while being loved unconditionally, maybe for the first time ever. They live everyday in fear of drug lords, split families, and crime is all around them. It is so valuable that they have a safe place to come and find hope in Jesus. I can’t wait to be apart of this mission! We will be impacting the future of Brazil through these kids.
We will be playing with THESE kids!!! Real faces in need of HOPE.
Details? I leave on July 21st and return to the States on August 4th. The total cost for the trip is $2,953 which includes: airfare, accommodations, and training. I have been working very hard to raise the finances, but I know that I cannot accomplish this task alone. Would you be willing to “go with me” by giving financially and pray for the whole team while we are there? If you would like to help sponsor me, you can give online www.globalexpeditions.com (Click DONATE and ID#2558262). My 50% ticketing deadline is on June 14th. All donations are tax-deductible. :)
Thank you so much for your prayerful consideration. Your prayer and support are greatly appreciated! I am truly thankful for the friends and family the Lord has blessed me with, and look forward to the great privilege of spending part of my summer in Brazil sharing God’s awesome love with the broken and hurting people there. Thank you for helping to send me, I couldn’t do it without you!
For His Glory,
Kayla Marie :)

Thank you to those who have already given in the past few days! You have no idea how much it means to me and what it will mean for the kids in Brazil. #ForHisGlory! Here's an update on finances visually:
