El Salvador 2020
Friends and family,
As many of you know, I’ve been working and learning as the Worship Arts resident at Eastview Christian Church since August of 2019. My residency and Master’s degree will be completed in July, but I am planning to live in Bloomington-Normal after the residency ends.
Recently, I was asked to join one of Eastview Global’s trips with some of the young adults from Eastview to go to El Salvador this October! The missions organization that we will be working with is called ENLACE. ENLACE (pronounced en-lah-say, the Spanish word for LINK) is a non-profit organization that equips local churches in El Salvador, Nepal and the U.S. to transform their poor communities. ENLACE trains and coaches church leaders to work with their communities to develop sustainable solutions to poverty through: food security projects (home gardens, chicken coops and tilapia farms), clean water and sanitation systems, medical care and health education, home building and repair, small business ventures, roads, bridges and infrastructure. Although team members aren’t allowed to share specific details about our specific project, you can learn even more about ENLACE at https://www.enlace.link/
Cross-cultural ministry is something that I have been passionate about for a large portion of my life. Experiencing God in new cultures challenges me to view following Jesus in many different ways, expanding my understanding that comes along with growing up in America. Jesus said in Matthew 28:19-20, “Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you.”
Would you partner with me in prayer during this process of preparing for the trip as well as the week of service? Pray for our preparation (mentally, spiritually, and for logistics such as plane tickets, paperwork, any vaccinations, etc.) for this trip. I also ask that you pray for safe travels, and that we will be able to easily work with the language barrier between us and the people in the city where we'll be. Pray for the possibility of being able to touch hearts and bring more people to Jesus.
Along with prayer, would you be willing to support my mission trip to El Salvador financially? I would be so incredibly thankful. Part of my being committed to this trip and to ENLACE requires me to fundraise to support the organization as well as all of my travel expenses for the trip. I would appreciate any amount to help me meet my goal of paying for this mission trip. If you are able to help please follow this link https://my.eastview.church/page/639?GroupId=331137
Thank you for considering to support my trip to El Salvador in prayer and/or giving. This opportunity would not be possible without the love and generosity of so many. If you have any questions or would like to know more about my trip, you can contact me at sadie.murbarger@eastview.church or call me at 618-445-1272.
In Christ,
Sadie Murbarger
