Hello Everyone
I hope your summer is off to a great start. I’d like to take just a few minutes to update you all on my fundraising and Peru Mission. Though raising money isn’t the most fun I’ve ever had, it has been a joy to share with many of you about what is going on in Trujillo.
encouraged by continued developments. A former Peru Mission team adm
inistrator hasproposed an economic plan to establish production facility that will
employ carpenters to produce Peruvian woodwork for export to
the United States to be reinvested in Trujillo. Construction and
expansion are underway for clinics, churches and schools, all
desperately needed in this poor country.
Growth in Trujillo has been made possible through Peru Mission. I will be an integral part of this growth process by teaching English, mentoring young people, and providing leadership to the young women in the school and city. I am convinced that this is a vital work. Please partner with me.
I have raised 25% of my $10,000 goal. My target date to leave is August 15, so time is passing quickly.
I am asking for 70 donors willing to give $100 in June or July or to commi
t to giving $10 dollars a month for the next 10 months. I would like to remind you that your donations are covering the cost of living- $500 per month, the plane ticket, costs related to teaching, and health insurance. All gifts are tax-deductible.
You are a blessing,
Katie Gaylor

Dear Katiem
Thanks so much for emailing me and providing me a tiny glimpse into your new life in Peru! I am so proud of you- YOU'RE THERE!! I hope you can now look back on the struggles you faced in mentally, spiritually, emotionally, and financially preparing for this journey and see what a minute role they played in God's overall plan for you! Katie, you are going to learn so much and grow in such unimaginable and wonderful ways that many people will never be able to understand or experience. Very few of us "take up the cross" in such an ambitious and self-sacrificing way as this! You have been blessed with gifts, talents, and abilities by the Lord to BE A BLESSING to others and you are doing just that! I guarantee you will reap a reward unlike anything you can imagine---I know this is irrevocably true because your goal is NOT to gain such personal benefits but rather to bestow them upon OTHERS! I am so glad for you and pray that you remain happy, healthy, protected, sustained, and filled with the love of God both for you and for the children whose lives you will touch! Take care, Katie!!!
Sorry- you are not Kaitem...would've been much better if the typo had at least followed your initials--katieg would've flown a little bit further..
