My Support Letter


Dear Family and Friends,
I hope this letter finds you well! I wanted to write you to let you know about some new things that are going on in my life. As many of you may know I have been working as a Firefighter/EMT with the city of Thomasville for a few years now. I love my job and the people I have the opportunity to work along side. I love to see the good we do for the people we help day in and day out through being Thomasville’s  local heroes; however my love for the people (especially the little children) of the world and my heart for missions, and love of travel has led me to a decision I am thrilled to share with you.
I recently applied, and was accepted into a program called The World Race. The World Race is a program in which I will serve as a missionary through an organization called Adventures in Missions. The World Race is an 11- month Christian mission trip to 11 different countries around the world. Through adventure, ministry, community, and self discovery, World Racers develop broken hearts that propel their hands to act for God’s kingdom around the globe. On the World Race, my team and I will serve in partnership with churches and ministries in local communities to preach the Gospel, plant churches, work in orphanages, minister to women and children who are trapped in prostitution as a result of human trafficking, and bring the restoration and hope of the Father’s love to many tribes and nations.
I am so grateful for this opportunity that the Lord has set before me, so amazed by His faithfulness and kindness towards me, and I have every confidence that He will provide for all my needs! Ultimately, my prayer is that He will do that through you. I am writing to you to ask and invite you to consider partnering prayerfully and financially with me in this ministry. I must raise $15,000 in order to go on the World Race, which covers all my expenses in the field. That is quite a lot of money, but I truly believe that whom the Lord calls He will also provide for, and already the Lord has provided so much. I am proud to share with you that through His great love for me He has already brought in $4,440! If your heart is moved to help in any way financially support can be given as a one time gift or as a monthly donation, wherein you choose the amount and beginning and end date. If 25 people pledge $50 a month for 12 months, I would have 100% of the funds necessary for my trip.
I have enclosed a response card and pre-addressed envelope, inviting you to share in this ministry. Please make checks payable to Adventures In Missions and return the response card with your donation to Adventures In Missions, PO Box 534470, Atlanta, Ga, 30353-4470. The response card will provide AIM with the information necessary to send you a receipt for your donation. If you would prefer to make your donation online, you may do so by visiting my blog site at devintudor.theworldrace.org. Just click the “Support Me” link in the upper left side of the page and complete your donation as instructed.
I am so excited to see what God will do in my heart and in the hearts of others in this coming year. I hope not only to be a blessing to those I serve, but also to you. I would be honored to go as your representative to bring the great love of Jesus to nations all around the world. I want to thank you in advance for your prayers and financial support. May God bless you as you prayerfully consider partnering with me in this ministry.
Live  A Great Story, Devin Tudor
