Send a missions team to Kenya

Hey party people!

As you may know, I am a filmmaker. My desire is to capture incredible stories from around the world and bring them back home to inspie people. Many of you supported my trip to Cambodia in July of '06. Here is a link to the trailer and another one to some of the photos I shot while I was there. Take a look - the team and I are pretty proud of the work we captured.

Well... I'm at it again. This time its a new continent with new faces and new stories to tell.

I am stoked to fill you in on my next big adventure. I'm going on an AIDS relief trip to Kenya in Africa in a couple weeks. This will be a two week trip where I'll be spending most of my time working in a massive slum called Kibera just outside of Nairobi. It's the world's largest slum with over 1 million people living there. It's also in the film "The Constant Gardener."

I'll be directly involved in working with AIDS affected orphans and widows. I will also be filming a "video diary" and pretty much whatever else comes my way.  I will be bringing back footage of the devastation as well as the hope that is going on there. 

bottom line - I need 3 things from YOU:

1) LOTS of prayer. LOTS, people. I'm not kidding. this is pro football, here, and I need my starting lineup...and coach... and fans. basically, I'm just the ball.

2) $10 (or more... you know, whatever) of your hard earned cash dropped into our team's paypal account (see PAYPAL ink below). and last but not least...

3) fwd this to your friends. $10 x 210 people = brandon gets on the plane to KENYA!! Think of it as giving up a latte or two for African  AIDS Orphans. There now, doesn't that make it all worthwile? Yeah, i know. Just call me Sally Struthers.

By the way, I'm heading over with a team of ten people from Ecclesia, a church in Hollywood and we are partnering with Global Action.  Check out our team website at www.kenyateam2007.com. Be sure and watch the video to see some of the work we've already done.

My full trip cost is $3100 - turns out plane tickets to Nairobi are expensive!! I've already raised the first third but I'm still in need of $2000 and I only have TWO weeks to raise it. ...nobody ever accused me of being consistently early. Besides, I do my best work on a deadline. Congratulations! You get to be part of a money-raising miracle!

The donation is tax deductible. I've included the snail mail address as well as an electronic payment option - just click the PAYPAL link below. (Very easy and secure.)

Thank you so much for your prayers and generosity! This is going to be a life-changing trip. I can't wait to tell (and show!!) you the stories when I get back.  Thanks for joining in the adventure with me! I'll keep you updated as the trip gets closer.


God Bless!

How effective is Blogger at sharing now.

This works great for 1 day trips somewhere if you have a fridge and laptop plugged in.  

Brazil is Cool and I want in on the Action

Many have asked and many times I have explained Why Brazil? I am going to Brazil because something is going on down there, and I want in on it. Spiritually there is a huge revival going on down there. Small groups explode into megachurches. People receive prophecy and obey to go on and do great things for God. And more missionaries hail from Brazil than any other country in the world. Here's a few stories that inspired me: One prayer team from Brazil instigated a revival in Goa, India. Stephen Baldwin becomes a Christian because a Brazilian nanny obeyed prophecy. A Brazilian Missionary defies 'The Prince of Peru' to instigate revival in Peru. I believe that when I get down there I'll find mentors to take me into more powerful prayer, into more effective evangelism, and more mission-oriented churches. Essentially my hope for Brazil is that I can find a community who will help me take my faith from applying the wisdom of the Bible to something more personal ......
