Here I Am, Send Me

First, I would like to thank each of you who donated money, bought candles, and/or gave me prayer support for my trip to Nicaragua this past summer.


One thing God really showed me this past summer in Nicaragua is that Nicaragua isn’t the end, but just the beginning of God’s call for me to foreign missions. This same call is now leading me to the other side of the world to Uganda, Africa for three weeks.  I will be working mainly with kids infected with HIV/AIDS. In 2009 alone 150,000 children were infected with HIV/AIDS, and 1.2 million were orphaned because of it in Uganda. In Uganda we’ll partner with a children’s ministry that aims to nurture vulnerable children by showing them God’s love.


Sadly, this trip isn’t going to come cheap. The total cost is $4,650. To help raise money I’m selling 6-ounce candles for $6 and “Letters in Nature” for $3 each letter and framed inspirational words like Love, Hope, Life, Live, Home and Pray for $15. Even though I’m selling candles and “Letters in Nature” I don’t know if I’ll be able to raise all the money I need. If 46 people donated $100, or if 92 people donated $50, I would have all the money!  If you are interested in candles and/or letters you can email me at Pawsforlife95@yahoo.com. If you would like to donate toward my trip you can go to www.Adventures.org/give click on “Mission Participant”, under “Choose a Program” find “Ambassador” then fill in my name: Candace Jeffcoat. Or send a check c/o Siloam Baptist Church (268 Siloam Church Road, Magee, MS 39111) and write Candace’s Trip in the memo line.


If you can’t support me finically please don’t feel guilty in any way, if you still want to help I always need prayer support.

Thank you in advance for supporting me in however God leads you.

Then I heard the Lord asking, “Whom should I send as a messenger to this people? Who will go for us?”
I said, “Here I am. Send me.”
