Dear Uptown Family,
We are excited to tell you that Uptown Church has been invited to send a short-term missions team to the United Kingdom (London) this fall!
WHO WE WILL SERVE
During this trip we will be visiting and working alongside Amjad Mahand and his family who live in High Wycombe. Amjad is an Uptown supported missionary who has been called by our Lord and Savior to witness to Pakistani Muslims. As the Lord would have it, there is a thriving community of Muslims living in London right near where Amjad and his family live.
This trip will be the first time that Uptown Church members will be physically partnering with Amjad
"on the ground", and represents an exciting opportunity for the team members to engage and build relationships with Muslims, support Amjad is his ongoing work, and also boldly share the Gospel.
Our team consists of (left to right) Jack Taylor, Andy Sullivan, Alyssa Willow, Jeremy Carroll, and Mark Skylling. We are humbled by this opportunity and would deeply appreciate your prayers and support.
OUR VISION
To glorify God by…
Partnering with Amjad to share the Gospel with Pakistani Muslims living in High Wycombe
Encouraging and supporting Amjad in his ongoing work
Fostering hearts for evangelism and disciple making at home and abroad, particularly in a Muslim context
SUPPORT
Before leaving on Sept. 1, we as a team must raise an estimated $10,000 total to cover the cost of the trip, the majority of which is attributed to airfare. Would you prayerfully consider partnering with us financially? Every little bit helps, and there is no amount too small for the Lord!
Would you also consider supporting us in prayer, whether or not you support us financially? “For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places.” Ephesians 6:12 (ESV)
If ever there was a spiritual battle field in which your Christian brothers and sisters needed prayer, it would be on the battle field of shining the light of Christ into Muslim hearts.
We believe this is a great opportunity for members of the body to participate in what God is doing throughout the world. Not only that, we also believe you will be investing in the lives of our team members, whom we hope and ask that the Lord would further use to expand His kingdom here at home.
