Hello Everyone!
As some of you know
(and have helped with) I went to Ireland last summer on a two week mission
trip. It was amazing, but I feel I would be more effective going on a longer
mission. I’ve been praying with my family and pastors and we believe that I
should go to Wales as an intern. This time I would be gone a year! Which means
a lot more in commitment and costs.
I want to thank you
again for the support you’ve shown me in the past and I would like to ask for
it again on this upcoming adventure.
For the next year I
will be working as an intern with a ministry called “ignite”. I will be a part
of several of their outreaches. “Re:gen Tremorfa” and “Speak” to name a couple.
“Re:gen Tremorfa” is a ministry where they run a youth drop-in center in the
southern part of Cardiff, Wales. This
is one of the most poverty stricken areas in Wales. As a team our primary goal is to develop an authentic,
incarnational ministry, to truly love our neighbors as ourselves. From this
starting point action and service will pour out which might include youth
clubs, detached ministry, sports teams, kids clubs etc.
“Speak” is a conference
that “ignite” does to ignite a passion for Christ in young people. They also have different courses that I will
take part in.
They are also looking to find new ways to share Christ and to connect with young people and I’m really looking forward to taking the gifts God’s given me and giving them back to God for His uses.

The overall cost of the
internship will be somewhere around $12,000. I know that nothing I do will
bring these funds about, but I also know that I can do all things through
Christ who strengthens me. I’m now asking that you pray about giving to this
ministry by supporting me financially, through air-miles, or through prayer.
The date I am hoping to
leave will be September 2nd. All contributions will be appreciated.
These funds will help me continue in the ministry throughout the year, so
please pray about giving monthly. If you would like to get a receipt for your
donation, please make checks out to Heartland
Church with a note attached with my name on it. Please don’t put my name in the
memo.
The address for Heartland Church is 1025 Vance Ave. Fort Wayne, IN 46805

I’m really excited
about this new opportunity to do ministry. I’m so thankful for all my friends
and family who support me in all my endeavors for Christ.
Praise be to God, Who makes all things
possible!
Your sister in Christ,
Natasha L. Utz
