Hi, this is Andrea. I have been wanting to go to Mexico on a mission trip since last year. This year I can go to Mexico if we can get enough money. We would be so grateful if you could help with the money. We would help finish building the orphanage and I would be able to baby sit the little ones. It is $650 per person. The mission team of Wapato Valley Church is leaving during spring break. I am saving some of my own money, but there is no way, as an 11-year old, that I can save up that much in such little time. Please pray and let us know if you can donate any money. If you live nearby, I’d be happy to baby sit or do other work for you!
Thank you!
Andrea Berry

Wapato Valley Church is sending a team to Guaymas, Mexico during Spring Break. Wapato has been involved with this ministry for years, even doing the groundwork (Septic tank) for the orphanage years ago (’02). Last year, the missions team built a fence around the compound for security and painted the orphanage, enabling an extra set of house parents to live with the children.
Andrea has definitely shown a heart for missions and maturity beyond her years in saving her money. As a single mother, I don’t happen to have $1300 available for the trip, though I will pray for a way to cover the difference between the donation amount and trip cost. While the trip is months away, we need to have deposits large enough to cover our tickets within the next month. By November 1, we need to have $600-$800, depending on prices.
Please consider helping us with the funds. The Bible promises that where your money is, there will your heart be also (Matthew 6:21). That’s great news, because if you are able to donate, it’s as though you will be serving in Mexico alongside us.
Now to the nitty-gritty details:
Make checks out to Wapato Valley Church
Include a separate note stating whom the money is for, which insures the money remains tax-deductible
Mail to PO Box 665, Gaston, OR 97119

We appreciate your consideration!
Please, all my blog readers, don’t feel any obligation! I wanted to share this on here in case any of you WANTED to be included in our journey, but I don’t EXPECT any of you to donate. We would definitely appreciate your prayers as we move forward though!
