Our Masters Commission is having their first ever dinner auction this November 3rd. We are trying to raise money for approximately 30-40 individuals to go overseas to India and Thailand on a missions trip in February 2007. The past two years we have taken students to Singapore, Malayasia and Indnonesia.
This years trip will include visiting New Delhi, India, where we will be prayer walking and hopefully visiting some orphanages. As well as working with groups that are established in the area that have various ministries already established. It is never our intent to go to a country and start a new program, but instead to go there and support and uphold the work already being done by Christian men and women.
From India we will travel to Bangkok, Thailand. The details have not yet been finalized, but we may have the opportunity to travel to the north by Laos and work with an individual who has a church planted there. We are also hoping to help in some way with groups that work with the child prostitution that is so rampant in Bangkok.
I am asking if anyone who reads this, if you are able to donate some type of goods or materials that we can auction off. We are looking for gift certificates to restaurants, coffee shops, tourists activities from Seattle to Portland. We are also looking for contacts that can help us procure such items as cruises, airplane tickets, and even a NEW CAR! If you'd like to help out with a donation, please feel free to email me at mc@p4square.com You can also call me if you'd like at 206-276-9332. We have our church's 501-3C paperwork available for any who donates, as we are a non-profit organization and you receive a tax write off.
If you are interested in attending our dinner auction please let me know as well. Tickets are set at a very reasonable price (I believe a couple is $50 or thereabouts). We want to raise at least $30,000....but I am dreaming big and hoping for $$70,000--$100,000.
Thanks for looking! If you can't donate or attend the dinner auction, please keep us in your prayers!
Blessings
Rachel
