Would you consider helping?

In September, Kandice Richey, my sister, and I have an exciting opportunity to share Christ’s love with the people in Nairobi, Kenya on a mission’s trip sponsored by my church, Traders Point Christian Church (TPCC). We will be traveling with a team from TPCC to participate in this trip September 6‐19, 2013.

Traders Point Christian Church has partnered with Christian Missionary Fellowship International (CMFI) and Missions of Hope International (MoHI) to bring God’s light into the Bondeni slum community in the Mathare Valley.  The Mission of Hope works to bring physical, emotional, and spiritual light through education and training to break the cycle of poverty and hopelessness.

In just a little over ten years, MoHI has developed a school system that has 13 Centers and approximately 7,500 students.  In the past four years the Bondeni Schools has grown from 250 students to over 800 students today.  Since 2009, TPCC has sent teams to Bondeni to work with the students and families of the community.  These trips have focused on Bible school training, micro-finance, job training, teacher training, dance instruction, athletic camps, medical clinics, and community outreach.  The focus of the 2013 September trip will be a medical clinic and community outreach. 

One of the ways you can help us get ready for this amazing trip is to pray for Kandice, myself, my team members, and the overall trip. We cannot do this trip without your prayer support.

Another way you can help me is to support Kandice and I is financially. The cost of this trip is $2,700 per person which each team member is responsible to raise on their own. Please prayerfully consider supporting us financially for this trip. God always provides and is faithful to His servants.

All funds going toward TPCC mission trip costs are considered tax‐deductible contributions to the extent allowed by law. They are accepted with the understanding that TPCC has complete discretion and control over the use of all donated funds. These donated funds are non‐refundable. All contributions towards my mission trip costs may be submitted though TPCC’s online giving. Please visit our website, www.tpcc.org and look for the online giving link near the bottom of the home page. When you get to the Amount, Purpose, and Frequency page, please select “one‐time gift,” Short Term Mission‐Kenya, and in the memo line make sure to put “Chris Arnold” and September 2013. Then follow the instructions to complete the rest of the process.

Thank you so very much and may God bless you for your support.
