Support Letter
Dear Friends,
December 17, 2005 was a special day as I graduated with a B.A. degree in Christian Ministries from George Fox University in Newberg, Oregon.
July and August 2005 was also a special time for me as I participated in a missions trip to China to teach English to Chinese Middle School teachers. I trained, traveled, and taught with an organization called TeachOverseas.org, which is based in Arcadia, Ca. I had the opportunity to live in the capitol city of Beijing, which was my second trip there after I toured the city during a study program in 2003. My 40 students and I learned from each other about our families, friends, cultures, and our favorite foods. Teaching in China was a challenge as my team and I dealt with the humidity, language barrier, team dynamics, and planning lessons.
I’m returning to China in 2006 with TeachOverseas.org as a full time teacher in their year long program. I’m no stranger to living and working in Asia as I lived in Japan for two years and traveled to Hong Kong and Singapore with the U.S. Navy. I’ve looked forward to returning to Asia as I saw a number of opportunities available for missions work.
I would like to invite you to partner with me in either a financial or prayer support commitment so that I can return to China to teach English to the next generation of Chinese students. As part of teaching in China my total support amount will be $7000.00 which includes training, travel, and administrative expenses.
Thank you for taking time to read this letter. Pray along with me as I prepare for both the training and trip to China. Feel free to contact me at anytime at the below contact info if you have questions regarding teaching English in China and my passion for world missions.
Respectfully,
Brian Cottrell
