… and to join with you so that together we may serve God and others as long as we both shall live.
— Dann and Nancy’s marriage vows
When we spoke those words to each other, we had no idea that ten years later we would be called to full time service with International Teams. Over the years God has provided additional opportunities such as foster care and Awana. Our commitment to International Teams is as strong as ever.
However…there will be a third trip to Ghana!
As you may recall, Nancy has been privileged to travel to Ghana twice, helping with the school library, spending time with the kids at the Love and Care Orphanage, and building relationships. To learn more about Two Pennies Ministry (TPM), check them out at
www.Facebook.com/TwoPenniesMinistry/.
TPM, through our local church, is returning to Africa March 24, and this time both Dann and Nancy are going. Dann plans to help set up computers in the library which TPM began and partner with the teachers, students and pastors in using technology. Nancy’s plans are still being defined. We are more excited than ever to be part of this journey. We are filled with a certainty that this is where God is leading us and are grateful that we can serve God together.
Please prayerfully consider whether you would be part of our support team for this trip. We hope for friends who will pray for this ten-day Journey. Of ultimate importance is building relationships with the people God places in our path. We also pray that our team (nine of us) will be guided by God’s grace, wisdom, and compassion, and be empowered by His strength to accomplish the work set out before us. We also need to raise financial support for this trip. May the power of God’s gift of salvation through Jesus Christ be known and accepted!
Will you join us?
Enclosed are a response card and a return envelope for your use. If you are writing a check, please write “Two Pennies Ministry†in the note, but please DO NOT write our names on it anywhere. Your gift will go entirely towards the cost of our trip.
In Christ,
Dann and Nancy
Now to Him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to His power that is at work within us, to Him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen. Ephesians 3:20-21
