Where You go, I’ll go Over the past two years I have been able to go to love on the poor and learn my own poverty in multiple countries: Haiti, Burkina Faso, the Philippines, the Bronx. What began as a staccato series of seemingly random trips has turned into an accelerating rhythm of His heart in mine; I am compelled to go where He leads me. So the next place I feel called to step is along the eastern coast of the African continent, the country of Mozambique.

APRIL 7, 2014 ONWARDS & UPWARDS

Serving Orphans in Pemba “Learn to do good; Seek justice, Reprove the ruthless, Defend the orphan, Plead for the widow.” Isaiah 1:17. Most of my time in Mozambique will be spent in the company of orphans who have been given a home, and who are loved, cared for, nurtured, and are being taught their true identity as sons and daughters of God!

What will I be doing in short?

- ministering to, holding, & playing with children

- praying for adults & children in need

- getting my hands dirty scrubbing big metal cooking pots !

- singing worship songs & singing while I serve

- possibly going on outreach to villages in the bush

- washing feet & taking bucket baths

Iris Ministries will be my home away from home for two weeks, where I will live in close community with other missionaries from around the world in a missions base that is also home to children who have been taken in to the Iris family.

Please consider sending me to Mozambique to extend God’s arms of love to His precious Mozambican children.

Every Blessing,Caitlin

Love will cost you everything.

“LOVE — It is a small four-letter word that will cost you everything: laying down your life, passion and compassion, giving without expecting, feeling His very heartbeat and surrendering to His rhythm, and following the Lamb wherever He goes, even to Mozambique.”

- Heidi Baker
