“The Spirit of the Sovereign LORD is upon me, because he has anointed me to preach good news to the poor. He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim freedom for the captives and release from darkness for the prisoners”. (Isaiah 61:1)
Dear friends,
I hope that this letter finds you and your family healthy and rejoicing in the Lord. I wanted to take this time to share with you about a missions trip that I’ll be serving on this summer/winter.
From January 23-30, I will be serving with a team of 14 people in Angeles City, Philippines, to minister the love and power of Jesus Christ. We will be holding revival services to empower the youth of local congregations, ministering and praying for the sick at NPWM churches, and empowering pastors and church leaders. This will be my first time serving in the role of team preacher on a missions team with New Philadelphia Church. I am nervous but also excited about how God will stretch me and use me in this role.
I would love for you to share my excitement and partner with me for this trip. First, I’d like to ask you for prayer. If you go to facebook.com/newphilly, you will find daily updates from the field of our team’s progress so you can pray specifically. Second, I will be raising $1,290 AUD to cover trip expenses. I have sown in as much as I am able, and must support raise the remaining $620 AUD (600,000 krw, $544 USD). If you’d like to contribute, please visit New Philly’s support site, http://support.newphilly.cc. A team profile and picture is also available there.
Would you consider partnering with me both in prayer and financial support? Through your support, you’ll be sowing into a great harvest and I know that you will be blessed through witnessing what God does in the Philippines.
God bless!
Paul Yoo
