Greetings!
Greetings in Christ Jesus! As summer winds down, I pray you had a great Labor Day. 
Summertime is when the bulk of our programming takes place. This year was no different – 9 weeks of mission trips to KY, OH, TN & WV as well as international trips to Haiti and Honduras; 9 weeks of Christian Service Camp; 8 Vacation Bible Schools; plus 13,000 meals packed for our schools in Haiti.
We are, however, more than a “summer” mission. Since 2010, we’ve sent out our own missionaries with on-going operations in specific areas around the world – Belize, Haiti, Honduras and Eastern KY.
I estimate that we “touch” about 1,000 people on a weekly basis through our IMPACT INITIATIVES.
With work multiplying & new ministry projects being launched, increased giving is needed to finance our expanding ministry.
Please READ BELOW & you’ll find 2 ways in which you can help us.
THANKS & God bless,
Greg Herriford (Executive Director)
(1) Join our Twice Annual Campaign
The Twice Annual Campaign asks those who can help us to send a financial gift of $50 twice each year to help finance the expanding ministry of Mission Journeys/TM. Work is multiplying with new ministry  projects being launched and costs are increasing considerably. We request the help during our lowest supporting months (early spring and late summer).
The timing of this particular request is very critical, having just gone through one of our lowest income months of the year. We are running about $2,000 short of where we need to be for this year with Twice Annual.
For those of you who are faithful supporters of this ministry and loyal donors through the Twice Annual Program, we say THANKS for all your prayers, support and encouragement.
