My Bahamas Mission Trip Support Letter


Dear Friends and Family,

I have been extremely blessed to be a part of a mission trip to the Bahamas with Calvary Christian Academy this January. I feel a calling from God to go on the trip so he can use me and my talents to minister to His children. I want to be able to help with any elders or children. I have experience in both from taking care of my grandma and being a part of children ministries and watching kids in the past. I can work with anyone who needs to be uplifted, loved, guided, or played with.

Ephesians 3:20-21 “Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, forever and ever!”

I also feel that this trip will be great to strengthen my relationship with God, help reinforce another person’s, or leading someone to having their own relationship with Christ. In order to make this trip possible, the number one thing we need is prayer; the reason for this letter is to ask if you can support our team in prayer. If you are capable, we could also use financial help. I could work by cleaning houses, mowing lawns, washing your car, or any other job you can have me do. You can learn more about the trip by going to: http://www.ccaeagles.org/page.aspx?pid=366. You can reach me at marcosleite@comcast.net.

Matthew 5:14 “You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden.”

I feel that on this trip, we need to be leaders and I personally think that leadership begins at the feet of Jesus. We need to humble ourselves, serve each other, and lead by example. We have to realize that God can use us now. Our view of Him will determine everything about us and how well we can serve Him. One of the biggest factors of our leadership and the effectiveness of our discipleship is our attitude. It determines our work ethic, relationships with each other, and even our education. Thank you for your time, consideration, and thought. Some specifics you can pray about are the following: health while traveling, the people we will evangelize, safety in our work projects, and that many people will come to know Christ through our efforts. If you cannot support our team finically, it’s ok. The most important thing is prayer. If you are not in a place to offer prayer support for our team, please pass on the word of our trip to another friend or family member.

Luke 14:27 “And whoever does not carry their own cross and follow me cannot be my disciple”


In Christ,
