back to Sophia

Guyana Mission: Sophia
Monday to Monday, July 10-17, 2006. The flights we’re planning to take fly out of and return to Huntsville, AL -- curiously, this was the best airport for the cost.

We will be working on a new church building and grounds for the Sophia Church of God, while serving as examples of the love of God to this developing community, and encouraging our brothers and sisters in Christ in missional partnership. read about our first trip to Sophia by clicking on "Sophia Church of God" under the previous posts.

How you can support this mission:
1) Pray - pray for the participants; favor in the community; Pastor Ronda Abrams (Sophia); funds for participants, materials, and property

2) Participate - GO - contact me for an information packet

3) Pay - Financial Support - you can support either individuals or the financial needs of the church. Please send all support to Sixth Avenue Church of God, 716-6th Ave SE, Decatur, AL 35601. Make checks payable to "Sixth Avenue Church of God" -- on the MEMO line, write in your support for the church with "Guyana/church" -- or write in individual support as "Guyana trip/pastor" or insert the name of the participant you want to help. (All gifts will be accounted for and distributed by Sixth Avenue Church of God, charitable contribution receipts will be mailed at the end of the year for your tax preparation purposes.)

we were excited to learn that accounts from our previous trips are being prepared to share in our state newsletter, and possibly in our national MISSIONS publication in the coming months. such publications could lead to greater interest, prayer, support, and participation in ministry in the country of Guyana. it's not there yet, but you can view the state newsletter article at AL News by following the link and then clicking on the "AL COG News" link near the bottom of the left column menu. keep checking back with this last link to see if our article made the cut for the national publication MISSIONS
