Our son Isaac is in his last year of college. Being British, having grown up in Papua New Guinea and gone to college in the USA presents its problems. Here is what he is thinking about his future.<\/p>\n

Dear Family and Friends,<\/p>\n

I am in my final year at College of the Ozarks and will graduate in December with a Bachelor’s Degree in Studio Art. I have also been studying Pre-Medicine with the plan to eventually attend Medical School and become a doctor. Ultimately, my desire is to be a missionary somewhere in the developing world and to use medicine as an avenue for reaching people with the Gospel of Jesus Christ.<\/p>\n

I have been accepted to volunteer with an organization called Projects Abroad to do medical work in Nepal. This will be an excellent opportunity to gain practical medical experience in the kind of environment I hope to work in someday. Here is summary from the Project’s Abroad website of what I will be doing:<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\n

You will be working on social and health development projects focusing on providing medicine and healthcare for the underprivileged. This is a particularly important service in a country such as Nepal where the National Health System provides for only 15% of the population. <\/em><\/p>\n

Work at the Hospital and Rehabilitation Centre for Disabled Children, in the Kathmandu Valley involves a unique combination of working with doctors and being involved with care activities. <\/em><\/p>\n

\n

It has been exciting for me to walk with God through the process of first hearing about this opportunity, praying about it for several months, and then making the decision by faith to go for it. He has already provided some of the funds I need for the trip and I am confident that He is working to bring the rest of the details together in His time.<\/p>\n

The cost of the project is $2,245 and the cost of travelling to Nepal is going to be about $2,000. If you would like to help sponsor me for this project, you may send cash or a check to the address below.<\/p>\n

Thank you,<\/p>\n
