Jamaica 2008 trip

Dear Friends,
I wanted to bring you up to date on what is going on in my life, as most know I have experienced a major change. I really did nothing to deserve these amazing things that happen yet in January of 2007 God reached me and began to change me from the inside out. Over this past year God has done some incredible things in my life and because of this, I am excited to share my present opportunity with you.

I will be going on a short-term mission trip with DELTA Ministries International (DELTA). DELTA is an interdenominational evangelical organization specializing in Short-term and Mid-term missions by supporting the ongoing work of local churches nationwide. DELTA also provides a variety of services that help churches ensure their short-term mission team is prepared and ready to serve when they arrive on the field.

By April 25th, my training will be complete and I will fly out of Ft. Lauderdale International Airport and arrive in Kingston Jamaica ready and excited to serve. I will be helping the missionaries with their daily work as well as helping several special projects and the Jamaica 2008 event http://www.jamaica08.com/ . We might find ourselves conducting open air meetings, distributing literature, leading Bible studies, working in children's ministries or doing work projects. Whatever we do, I am certain that God will use us to further His kingdom.

I am excited about what God will do through my team and me this spring, and I can hardly wait to go. Of course, I can't make it there on my own. I am going to need a lot of help. First, I will need prayer support. I need to have at least 10 prayer partners: people who will pray for me every day that I'm in ministry. This form of help is vitally necessary to the success of the team. So please consider committing to be one of my prayer partners.

Thanks again for the interest that you have shown in my life. You have been a great encouragement to me. I look forward to sharing with you all that God accomplishes this spring. He is so AWESOME……how great is our GOD!!!!

In Christ,

Al Cannon
PS. I am going to Cuba on another mission trip in September…….
