Chennai (Dec. 2016) Support Letter

 

Hello beloved friends!

 

It is with great joy that I write to tell you that I am finally being sent to do missions in the nations! Although I consider Korea my primary mission field, I have always longed to go to other nations to build up local ministries and preach the gospel. God has opened the door for me in this season, and I will be travelling to Chennai, India, from December 26th to 31st with 13 other people from my church.

The region that we will be going to, Chennai, is located along the Eastern border of India’s southern tip on the Bay on Bengal. It is the 4th largest city in India and is the capital of the “Tamil Nadu” region where many people are of Sri Lankan Tamil descent. The area is roughly 87% Hindu, but Chennai is the landing ground for the apostle Thomas, where it is believed he preached the gospel and was martyred for the faith. Thus, it has a rich history in the Lord’s story.

The previous team our church sent to Chennai in 2014 came back with testimonies full of glory! Pastors and discipleship leaders were equipped with tools to carry on in ministry, people in remote villages received Christ for the first time, and cell groups of Christians who risk persecution by meeting in secret were refreshed and empowered as the mission team met with them. Such stories have filled my heart with joy and desire to meet these beautiful souls who long for Jesus so boldly and earnestly.

I believe that as we go to Chennai once again, God is going to move intentionally and powerfully to meet these hearts exactly where they need Him most, and that God will cause their light to shine brightly. I ask you to consider partnering with me in order to release his kingdom on Earth. Although my team and I will be in the field, partners like you are integral to God’s kingdom come, and you will share in the reward for it all one day. You can partner with me in 2 ways: First, I need to raise a total of 1,125,000won (~950.00 USD) to cover the expenses of the trip that are not covered by my own contribution. Secondly, I need the grace of prayers to prepare and go! Our team will send out updates once we are on the field about how you can pray for us.

 

Thank you for being a blessing in my life and considering this partnership!

 

Sincerely,

Emily
