We're going to Africa!

With less than three weeks to go, the Ghana Rock team is counting down the minutes until we head to Doryum, Ghana! We all feel honored and blessed to get to be the representation of Ghana Rock in Africa for a week. While we are there we will get to serve with City of Refuge staff, meet some of the newly rescued kids, distribute 200 pairs of shoes courtesy of Samaritans Feet, and venture to Lake Volta to witness child slavery first hand and by Gods grace bring kids to safety and freedom!

We would love your support as we prepare for the trip and while we are there. For a lot of the team this is their first trip either out of the country or to a third world country. I am pretty certain there will be some culture shock! ;) I asked a sweet sweet man I love and respect so much how we even begin to prepare your heart for the poverty and hurt we are going to see, his response? You pray God wont ever let you forget it, you'll be more significantly changed that way. So pray with us, that we never forget what we see and come home significantly changed.  Pray for good attitudes in any situation (after all, it is Africa and it's hot... all the time). Pray every opportunity we have to share God's love, grace, and compassion we take... without hesitation, and that we will be filled with the Holy Spirit and speak God's word with boldness.



Also, pray we can miraculously pack all 200 pairs of shoes... look at all these boxes!

P.S. Going to Africa is really expensive, if you would like to support the team in monetary or physical expenses please email ghanarockteam@gmail.com and we'll give you more details.
