(OH AND MY COUSIN DID NOT ASK ME TO POST THE UPDATE, JUST A PROUD COUSIN DOING SO =)
He says he reads my blog, well we will see
This is my cousin Michael, who I am so proud of, my buttons are bursting. Michael’s daddy (my Uncle) is one of my Uncles I grew up with. I was the little “tag along” niece to my college age Uncle. As awesome as my Uncle is, he has raised two awesome boys. And Michael is his oldest.
Let me tell you a little bit about Michael, he has had a passion for missions for as long as I can remember (at least end of high school). While going to college he volunteered with the youth, Michael has a gift with electronics so he was able to help his church out with all the tech stuff. During college Michael took many mission trips, and God lit a fire in his belly for missions. Now he is ready for the ride of his life, he is moving over there. Currently he is finishing up his graduate level missions degree in Seminary. After he has raised his needed support he is moving to Latvia.
Michael says, “My role in Lativia will be working with youth and training youth leaders. I will work in local church youth groups, host summer camps, mentor Latvian youth workers, and work for a Latvian youth organization run by J.V. missionaries there.”
My reason for mentioning this:
1. To let Micheal know how proud I am of what he is doing. I worry about him being in another country but I also know he is going to do a mighty work for the Lord.
2. Please pray for him. Pray he raises his needed support.
Also could you do me one more favor, he is pretty lonely in blog world, I would LOVE LOVE LOVE IT if I could get tons of people go to his blog and tell him how much we support what he is doing and that you are praying for him. (www.jvru.com)
Feel free to do a post (you can use the picture of him) and send people to his blog. I would love to overwhelm him with well wishes before he leaves at the end of the school year.
Love you ‘cuz.
