Hello all!
Excited to announce I will be headed to New York and Bulgaria this coming March 19-29!
About
I will be joining Georgian & Winnie Banov on a trip of lifetime as I journey with them to NYC & Bulgaria. The trip will start off with an outreach in NYC to celebrate the 3rd Annual United Nation’s Holiday: The International Day of Happiness. Celebratory outreaches will take place on Madison Avenue, at the UN building, in Central Park and various other locations through the city. The core value of this holiday is “you are worth more then what you can produce” These are the values of Jesus, so we are going to NYC to show the world what everlasting happiness truly is.
In Bulgaria, we will get the opportunity to be the literal arms & feet of Jesus to the most rejected people group in Eastern Europe - the Gypsies. The Gypsy slums and ramshackle neighborhoods provide the perfect setting for wild, personal and affectionate ministry. Unlike the stereotypes held about them, they are some of the warmest and most loving people one has ever met. With hungry hearts, they are responding to the outpouring of the Holy Spirit. Being the poorest of the poor they do not have a “reputation” to lose, and therefore are not ashamed to let themselves get lost in worship, or of the manifestations of the Holy Spirit. Miracles and ministry opportunities take place in an intense environment of celebration and worship to the King of Kings, resulting in entire neighborhoods and communities that are being changed forever. On this life changing and unique trip, our team from BSSM will join the Banovs as they as they take a lively journey and travel through the Bulgaria hillside to various Gypsy camps. This is a bold & festive ministry styled trip. I am prepared to dance with the Gypsies for hours, fill my arms with their happy children, and see Heaven invade their lives as Jesus loves them through us.

" The heart and passion of the Bethel Mission Trips Department is to see the sons and
daughters of God in all the nations awaken to His goodness and love. As children of Heaven,
we have access to His Kingdom and demonstrate His love, glory, and power in all aspects of
society. Our strategy is to raise up a generation of world changers in their own nations to
begin to run with their God-given inheritance to bring heaven to earth and transform their
nation. This trip, through Bethel School of Supernatural Ministry (BSSM), ultimately reflects
the vision of the Bethel Mission Trips Department."
Why do I want to go on this trip?
When we were picking our trips for the year, I was overwhelmed, and told God "I don't know which to pick, I feel like it doesn't make sense for me to go on any of these because I don't feel "called" to another country." And He simply said "Pick ones that excite you." So I proceeded to read over 70+ trip descriptions. The only one that excited me upon reading was this trip, which is funny because last year I declared I would never go on a trip with the Banovs. They freaked me out. This trip is out of my comfort zone in different aspects than most would say for a missions trip. I'm on a journey of learning to be a daughter, and a huge part of that is having fun. God has time and time again told me to choose and do things out of fun this year. So this makes sense. Raising money for this trip honestly scares me because of the cost. But I am risking and asking others to believe with me! We regret the risks we don't take, and any bit of stepping into something out of our comfort is a new way of God coming in creatively and expanding that zone as we experience more of Him in that place, grabbing hold His invitation into deeper intimacy with Him. Everything He does is to bring us closer.
AND I WANT TO HOLD AND LOVE GYPSIES!!!
Support What I am asking is that you would consider partnering with me in prayer into this trip, and if feeling led, to give financially towards this trip. I need to raise a total of $3,250.00. I've been empowered to empower, freed to bring others into freedom, and carry my own breakthroughs and powerful testimony and the power of Jesus Christ to unleash to the world. We believe in and expect to see miracles, signs and wonders, as our good Father embraces and lavishes His affectionate love upon His children on this trip amongst many.
This is an incredible opportunity to take part in sowing into what God is doing now in our generation, to sow into His plan for a culture, a nation, a family, His heart!
Most of all, thank you for taking the care to read this! I appreciate and value you. Truly, truly from the bottom of my heart.
