I set up a GoFundMe account at http://www.gofundme.com/bpnvrw today.
My wife and I are raising funds to go to Costa Rica and Guatemala to get a boots-on-the-ground assessment of the needs in a few locations and verify a few of our contacts for mission outposts for our fledgling GO! Ministries. We will then become long term missionaries and partner with the locals modeling the gospel and helping them with education, medical, and practical needs like housing, agriculture, clean water, food and clothing. We hope to establish an orphanage in each area as well. Our mission outposts will provide an opportunity for people to travel to these countries and serve on a short term basis. It will be a base-camp for serving and sharing valuable skills so the indigenous people can improve their life. This will be a long term mission that will be able to offer affordable short-term mission opportunities for others.
I am modeling around the work of Back2back ministries, Matthew 25 and People Building People. I have contacts in these countries that I would like to verify are legit and I would like to observe the needs firsthand.
