Powerpoint presentation on what we are hoping to do in Liberia.

This is a slightly edited version of the presentation we have been using to show to supporters and those interested in what we are hoping to do in Liberia. Hope it gives you a bit more of an idea of what we are going to do. Will and Jenny Elphick's Liberia Presentation

Progress so far...

We have half the financial support we need to get us out to Liberia and we are very thankful to those who have agreed to support us. We need to raise an additional £1200/month. Do you feel able to be a partner in our work and commit to a monthly donation?

Here are the details…

We need to raise money for our flights, rent, support services from SIM, pensions, food and living costs, medical insurance and yes, evacuation insurance too - hoping the last one is not needed…! We’ve always wanted to ride in a hellicopter but a trip over Niagara falls may be more fun than an emergency evacuation out of Liberia.

Although the rent from our house,and the generosity of our church will go some way to our target figure of £2300/month, we still have a lot to raise. It may be helpful to break it down and see what sort of possible combination of donations are needed.

If… 

2 people give £100 a month

9 people give £50 a month

20 people give £10 a month

25 people give £5 a month

And with 25% received in Gift Aid from refunded taxes, we are off to Liberia! If you want a ‘Standing Order Form’ this is the address to go to www.sim.co.uk/sof or donate online at www.sim.co.uk/donate.

No matter how small or large your donation is, we would be delighted for you to join our team of supporters. You will become an important, indeed essential part of the team as we do this work in Liberia. We will keep you informed of our successes and failures; hopefully not too many of the latter, and we can assure you that you will be truly valued.

Someone said to us recently, if God wants you to go to Liberia, he isn’t going to send you without the finance to do the job and we know in our head this is true. We just need to trust Him “And my God will meet all your needs according to his glorious riches in Christ Jesus” Phil 4:19

We are really excited about our future but there are moments of nerves and the hardest part of our preparation is the fund-raising. It doesn’t come naturally to ask for money and we have to remind ourselves that is it all part of God’s plan. He wants people to be involved in His work in Liberia through prayer and financial giving.
