Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past.
See, I am doing a new thing!
Now it springs up; do you not perceive it?
I am making a way in the desert and streams in the wasteland. (Isaiah 43:18-19)
Hello there!
I hope you are walking in the fullness of God’s joy and peace! I’ve been serving as a full-time Emmaus Campus Ministry college pastor since February of this year, and it has truly been the most amazing semester of Emmaus! So much breakthrough; more salvations and testimonies of the Lord’s goodness than ever before! Now, I’m so excited to share with you about an upcoming Intern Swap I’m being sent on this summer.
I, along with two other full-time staff from New Philly, will be sent for three weeks to Emeryville, California from June 18-July 6 to intern at Living Hope Christian Center. I will be staying with Pastors Benjamin and Sunhee Robinson (Pastor Christian and Pastor Erin’s spiritual mentors), who are the lead pastors. I’ll join the Living Hope family for their services, inner city outreach, and children’s ministry. I am being sent to a house in our spiritual lineage, so I go not just to be blessed and pour out personally, but also on behalf New Philly and Emmaus.
Around two years ago when I graduated college, I planned to go to seminary in California. Instead, I came to Korea and realized that God had called me to New Philly long-term. Little did I know that God did in fact want me to go to California—to attend a different sort of kingdom training that is more than what I could have ever asked for or imagined. I feel so honored, blessed, and thankful to be sent on this trip.
I would like to ask that you prayerfully consider playing a huge part in this Intern Swap by partnering with me and sending me! There are two ways that you can sow into this trip.
First, I’d like to ask for your prayers. Please pray for grace upon me to multiply and give away my inheritance from New Philly and also to receive on behalf of the house.
Secondly, I will be raising 1.75 million KRW for this Intern Swap. If you’d like to join me through prayer and/or finances, please use this web site and email me at ronababb@newphilly.cc
Thank you and God bless you!
In Him,
Rona Michelle Babb
