Dear Friends,
Recently, the Lord has been transforming my heart in many ways. I am in the second semester of my freshmen year here at Abilene Christian University and I just got back from a spring break mission trip with my church down in Abilene, Beltway Park. During my trip I had the opportunity to reach out to some of the Hindu and Napoli refugees down in Dallas and the Lord has been molding my heart to have a deeper passion for all peoples of the world. Through the love and identity that the Lord has been giving me, I now hope to give back what the Lord has so abundantly blessed me with (Luke 12:48).
God has placed before me a unique and awesome opportunity to serve Him. On June 3rd-12th, a group from my college ministry at Beltway Park Baptist Church will be traveling to Honduras for a short-term mission trip. Our team will be partnering with Mission Lazarus Honduras to make disciples of Jesus and plant churches in villages and communities throughout Honduras. We will have the privilege of sharing the gospel with the lost, praying healing for the sick, ministering to the poor, and baptizing and discipling new believers. God has really stirred my heart and confirmed to me that this is something He desires me to be involved in. I am stepping out in faith, trusting that God will provide as I follow Him in what I sense He has called me to do.
The cost of the mission trip to Honduras is $1,500 per person. Would you please prayerfully consider supporting me financially as I follow God's calling to go to Honduras? Checks made payable to Beltway Park Baptist Church are tax deductible. Please mail checks to our church office by April 16th (Attn: Short Term Mission – Honduras, Beltway Park Church, 4009 Beltway South, Abilene, TX 79606). Please do not write my name on the check but on the commitment card included. (download card pdf)
As much as your financial support is appreciated, would you support me in prayer? Here are some key ways you can pray for my team, the people of Honduras, and myself:
Thank you so much for supporting and investing in me through the years. I look forward to being used by God this summer and sending you updates about what God does in me and in Honduras! Email me if you have any questions ~ nd.forgiven@gmail.com
In Christ,
Nick D'Alessandro
