Headed to Peru with Compassion International
Posted on October 9th, 2009 in Church Life, Faith, Life and Family, Ministry Trips by Fred McKinnon
Hello Friends,
I’ll be leaving in a few days and joining a group of church pastors and missions pastors for a week long mission to Lima, Peru with Compassion International.
I’ve never met a single person on this trip – but I’m looking forward to doing so. I’m looking forward to the time away, the opportunity to give of myself, to love others, to share a smile, a hug, and hopefully, bring back a greater understanding of Compassion’s ministry.
Time and internet-availability permitting, I will be blogging, uploading photos, videos, and sending out “tweets” via my @fmckinnon twitter account. (still not following my updates on Twitter – click here to do so). Many of my “tweets” will update my Facebook Status as well. Of course, this assumes I will have access to the internet, or that my phone will work and have coverage in Peru.
So all next week will be blog bursts, tweets, and updates from the mission field.
If you’ve never sponsored a child, I’d encourage you to consider it. Just click the Compassion banner above (or this link) for more details.
Pray for us, and please pray for my family as well. They are in GREAT hands.
For the Kingdom,
Fred
