Progress Toward

This weekend was a great one! I have confirmed my departure date I will be leaving May 8th 2010. I know this is only a few months away and my excitement grows as time continues toward my trip.

Also this weekend I presented my trip in VA to New Life Community Church. They were encouraging and very supportive.

Thanks too all who have supported me so far.

Hello All!






Hello All!

I hope this finds you well. I am writing this blog to update everyone about what I am doing in 2010 - 2011!

My name Is Kyle Ledyard and I would like to tell you a little about myself and my background with missions.


I have had exposure all of my life to missions and world travel and have always loved studying about different places in the world and with that came a desire to travel to those places. My first mission trip out of the country was to Jamaica and seeing the poverty stricken land with astounding points of natural beauty and the small patches of wealth from tourism. Most recently I have been to Kenya for the months of May 2008 and July 2009 with Morningstar University and the SF Missions program. I saw similar situation there I had seen in Jamaica. This brought a love for the people, a love for the  culture and a want to help bring economic opportunity and spiritual change. This is why I am going to the Teamwork City of Hope (www.teamworkcityofhope.com) in Tanzania for a year! I will be leaving May 8, 2010. 


I have created this blog so that I can keep everyone updated while I am in country.



If you would like to know anything more please do not hesitate to contact me.


                        Faithfully,
            Kyle Ledyard
