Fundraising Trip

Our courageous team leader, Hamish Taylor, left New Zealand yesterday to fly to the States for a two week fundraising trip. Hamish is such a sacrificial and willing leader. He is leaving behind his wife and baby for two weeks to represent our team and our vision to at least fourteen different churches who might be interested in partnering financially with our new church. 

Hamish and Molly made lunch for our team on Monday before we had a time of prayer for Hamish and his trip. 

The churches that are interested in meeting with us are in Ohio and Indiana. At this time, we have fourteen churches, it is our goal to have Hamish meet and share our vision for Christchurch with twenty churches or people. We have had a few last minute cancelations this week, but pray that we will not have any more. 

Will you join us in prayer for this trip? 

Please pray for safety for Hamish as he will be driving around Ohio and Indiana for the next two weeks. 

Please pray for the entire Taylor family as they are separated for the next two weeks. 

Please pray that God will open doors at these meetings and that these meetings will be a catalyst in raising the funds we need to start the new church. 

Please pray for six more meetings, we are hoping for a total of twenty meetings. 

Praise God for the way he has provided for this trip through meetings with churches, plane tickets, and accommodation for Hamish while he is in the States. 

Thanks for your prayers! Our team wants to make sure that Hamish knows we are behind him, thinking of him, and encouraging him.  We sent Hamish on his way with letters to open each day for encouragement. We also made him a scavenger hunt to complete along his travels that includes taking pictures of things in the States that our team misses. If you want to send Hamish a bit of encouragement or a prayer, feel free to email him at kiwiwithacause@yahoo.com to let him know he is in your prayers. We look forward to updating you with the success of his trip!
