In less than a month, Belmont's 2006 Sports Evangelism Team will be on location approximately 250 miles east of Caracas, Venezuela in the city of Maturin. The 16 athletes and staff on this trip will work with IMB missionaries in several area locations holding clinics, sharing testimonies, participating in worship services, and providing whatever support that is needed.

We Need Your Help:

We invite you to be a part of this year's team by reading The Venezuela Journal while the team is in Venezuela. You may receive regular email notices when new entries are made to the jounal by completing a short subscription form (see GET UPDATE NOTICES BY EMAIL in the right hand column of the home page).

Beneath each story on the journal is a link for Comments... your encouraging words always mean a lot to the team during and after these mission trips. Please take a moment to share your thoughts with the team, it is as easy as completing a simple form and hitting the Post button.

Most of all, we covet your prayers for the safety, health, and ministry opportunities on this trip. Conditions in this region of the world (particularly the temperature) may be taxing on athletes and keeping everyone in good shape for ministry needs to be a priority in prayer.

Thank you, to all of you who have provided support for this trip, whether that has been financial, planning, prayer, or logistics!
