Last month, the CGGC Cross-Cultural Ministries Commission approved the
appointment of two new missionary internships for 2014.
Isaac Acosta has
been approved for a summer 2014 internship at Gamerco Church of God (NM). His
primary focus will be reaching out to Spanish-speaking children and youth in the neighborhood and assist in
developing a Latino ministry. Pastor John Thumma will serve as Isaac’s
supervisor at Gamerco.
Isaac is a member
of Sanidad Divina Church in Columbia, PA where he serves as their youth leader.
A freshman at Lancaster Bible University, Isaac has ministered in Venezuela and
was on the 2013 Kenya Acts Team. His parents are Pastors Caleb & Christina
Acosta. Funding for Isaac should be designated for CC 2809.008.
Caroline Tatum plans to join the
Project Help staff in Haiti for five months as a tutor to the three Snyder
children. Miranda, Ariel, and Zack are enrolled in an online course of
instruction through their school back home in central PA. Caroline will work
alongside the students to guide them in their learning experiences.
Caroline
attends Chambersburg First Church of God (ERC). She recently completed training
with Global Expeditions and has several short-term
cross-cultural experiences, including a summer ministry in South Africa.
Caroline is the daughter of Pastor Paul & Debbie Tatum. Funding for
Caroline should be designated for CC 2809.009. Since she begins her internship in January, funding is urgent!
The CGGC missionary internship
program is a way to (1) help persons discern God’s will for future missionary
service; (2) provide short-term leadership to a mission church or field with a
particular ministry need; and (3) motivate the person to have a lifelong
missions vision.
Support for these interns should be sent to CGGC, Box 926, Findlay, OH 45839. Be sure to use the specific designated code. 100% of your gift will go to their support account.
