Support Letter

Here it is... My letter telling you how to donate. Let me know if you have any questions!

Dear Friends and Family, 

Greetings! I want to share with you a tremendous opportunity that God has opened up to me to serve Him this summer. I will be travelling to Cameroon with a mixed Tyndale and Wycliffe Bible Translators team. Our role as a team will be to work alongside the translators and literacy workers in schools and churches to help increase momentum and raise the profile in the community for literacy and Scripture translation. Adapting to onsite teams’ activities we will assist in local literacy and Scripture Use programs. This may include, linguistic research, supporting local creative methods of Scripture engagement, leading Scripture studies and developing dramas. One key aspect of this cross-cultural experience will be interacting in village homes with local families along with one or two other team-mates, as well as language learning and engaging in local culture.

I am excited about the experience that lies ahead, both for ministry to others and for personal growth as I seek to communicate Christ cross-culturally. We recognize that our service needs to be supported in prayer and so would first ask you to consider joining our team in this regard. I will supply you with a schedule and prayer needs before I leave, and will share with you the blessings of what God accomplishes through us on our return. It would be great to have you minister with us through your prayers for the people of Cameroon.

We also have financial needs to cover the airfare, inoculations, room and board, health insurance and ministry costs of this trip. Each team member needs to raise approximately $3600, with half of it in place by the end of February to buy the air tickets. Please consider being a part of this mission team in this regard. If God leads you to participate with financial support, make your cheques payable to “Tyndale Foundation” and note ‘Cameroon Trip’ on the memo line. Include a separate note with my name on it for allocation toward our team fundraising efforts. As well you can now donate online at giving.tyndale.ca/donate. Once there, indicate that you would like to contribute to Greatest Need and in the comments section indicate it is for Missions along with my name. All donations for the student mission team are tax deductible and will be receipted accordingly. Thanks in advance for your prayers and financial support. May God richly bless you as you partner with us in this outreach opportunity.

In Christ, 

Karima Horton
