Send Rachel to Washington D.C.!

As missionaries, one of our least favorite things to talk about is money. But, one of our MOST favorite things to talk about is our children. Since the latter outweighs the former, here is a letter from our oldest daughter, which includes an opportunity to help her represent her school and participate in a national competition. Thanks for reading, and for your prayerful consideration. 





Hello! My name is Rachel Farrier and I’m a freshman at Inter-American School in Quetzaltenango, Guatemala. Recently, my team won the regional History Fair competition in Guatemala City, which allows me to advance to the national competition in Washington, D.C. 

Our trip to D.C. will cost around $2,500, which is a lot for anyone, especially a missionary family. That’s why I’m writing this letter to you now. In order to pay for our trip, I’m fundraising, and I’d like to ask you to pray about assisting me in getting to National History Fair in June.

If you feel led to support me, I thank you profusely. If you don’t feel as though you are supposed to fund me, that’s fine as well, and I ask that you pray for me to receive the funds necessary in order to be able to take this trip.

My first fundraising opportunity is a Jamberry Nails sale.  30% of your purchase price goes toward my trip!!! This is a great chance to buy some fun, easy-to-use nail art, and raise money to send me to Washington D.C.  If you’d like to participate, go to http://tinyurl.com/RacheltoDC to browse available options and make your order, and be sure to share with your friends and family as well!

If you’d prefer to simply make a donation, giving is safe and easy. Just go to http://www.gofundme.com/farrier to make a donation via GoFundMe. I will be accepting donations until I reach my $2,500 goal.
  
Thank you again for your prayers and consideration. I really do appreciate it!
-Rachel Farrier
