Hello!
I pray everything is going well with you. I can’t believe summer is almost over! I just wanted to let you know about some of the great things that are happening in my life.
Work has at Ikea been going well lately. Logan (my boyfriend) is doing well and just graduated college in May. He is currently looking for a full time job, and I am confident that he will soon. In my free time I am involved with my church Crossroads with a young adult bible study, and I am looking forward to going on a mission trip to Mumbai, India. I’m ready to see how God is working in a completely different part of our world.
In October, people from Crossroads will be heading to Mumbai, India. Our partners there have been working relentlessly to rescue girls from forced prostitution. We’ve provided financial support, prayed for rescue, gathered care packages and hosted the heroes who’ve been working on the frontlines. Now, we’re going to develop relationships with potential key church partners in India, and prepare them to give the girls love, hope, and long-term, sustainable support in a language they can understand. This is key to long-term support of this work. We’ll be joining our partners in their efforts to bring healing and restoration.
This trip provides an opportunity to meet the physical and spiritual needs of a community that is desperately in need. More than anything, I’d value your prayers for our team, and those whose lives will be touched by God through us. I’m asking you to pray for safety, health, smooth travel and financial support. Knowing that you’re praying will give me peace as I go to an unfamiliar place.
Beyond prayers, if you’re led to financially support this mission, I’d be grateful. Our group needs to raise approximately $68,000 to cover the total cost of the trip. My personal contribution is $3,400 plus incidentals. I want to extend an invitation to you to participate. This is a journey that God has called me to and I would greatly appreciate any level of support that you are able to offer.

Again, I really hope things are going well for you. Thanks so much for taking the time to read this letter, and if you have any questions, please let me know. Take care, and I hope to hear from you soon!
With gratitude,
Suzanne Norman
