Help me worship Jesus in Manila, Philippines

As a result of releasing my first original worship song in 2017 I have been invited to join the worship team at New Life Church, Alabang in the Philippines for Jesus Festival, March 2018!

This is a crazy opportunity which I did not see coming, but I need a little help with funds if I am to get there and worship with them.

I have a passion for writing music and plan on writing much more in the coming years, so I am pretty blown away that I have been given this opportunity so suddenly and so early on in my journey as a writer.

Two of my biggest dreams are of travelling as a musician, and of seeing peoples lives changed by doing what I love. I am also a strong believer in the fact that those who are faithful with the small will be trusted with bigger things, which I'm excited (and frankly a tad daunted) to say I'm starting to see happen in my own life.

Flights are going to cost about $2,000 NZD, but accommodation is already sorted, so I just need some help with affording flights. The dates for the conference are the 23rd and 24th of March, 2018. It's close. Very close. If there are any leftover funds I will use some for funding the production and mastering of my soon to be released worship songs, and the rest will be donated to people I meet in Manila.

I usually wouldn't be OK with asking for money, but after thinking on it for a while I've realised this is really about giving others the chance to support what God is doing in my life, and in the lives of those I will visit and worship with in Manila, and that's more important than my pride.

So please, if you want to support me, feel free to donate some money and/or keep me in your prayers.

Much love,

Marcus.
