P.E.A.C.E Trip - Hong Kong
My life has been radically transformed since I accepted Jesus this past Christmas 2016. I've given up many of my vices and have gotten heavily involved in the local church community through small groups, high school ministry, and more. I've decided to take the next step and help with global mission work overseas in Hong Kong through my church, Saddleback. We will be helping to set up and run a children's summer camp and convention through Saddleback Hong Kong, and hopefully, God will reach out to many more people through this experience.
The cost of the trip is going to be upwards of $3,100, so I would need another $2,800 in support of this endeavor. If you have wanted to serve globally and have not had the time, or if you have a heart for improving the lives of children and want to be a part of this foundational project, I would please ask you to consider supporting me financially in any way you can. The amount is not as important as the act of giving anything you may have to show your support. I am extremely grateful to anyone who could even support with $1 - $5. It means everything knowing who's backing me in this journey, so thank you.
(Donations will officially close on July 20th.)
In addition, if you feel so inclined, please pray for our safety and so that we may be a source of light on the other side of the world. Thank you!

P.P.S. - I apologize that it's a little tedious to donate (the site makes you make an account to donate), so if you would prefer to Venmo me, you can send it to @Dxngooyen7 ...or I'll also take any other form of payment and upload it to the site in your name, thanks again!

Addendum:
Q: What do I hope to accomplish there? (Because a good friend asked).
A: The single most impactful thing I hope to be able to do is share my testimony. I hope my story of being completely against God during my relationship with Jewelz to now doing everything for His sake inspires kids in Hong Kong to accept Jesus. I hope my transformation shows them what Jesus can do in their lives as well. China is only 5% Christian and growing. If our work is able to transform people the way it did for me, who knows how many people they could touch from that point on. It doesn't stop with them only accepting Jesus. I hope that by doing that, it creates an inner transformation that makes them more humble, empathetic, giving people who dedicate their lives to serving others as Jesus did. Who knows, this could create a ripple effect that spreads through China over the next several decades, or even years. The results really could be unbelievable. Imagine a world where even the worst of us learn to become our best selves and grow/worship/serve in God's name. It will only come to pass if we have the courage to move forward in faith. So I ask for your help because I can't do it alone. I ask God to move you to help me become His "hands and feet." Thank you for your support, whether you donate or not.
