Passport Came in Last-Minute… God Said ‘Go!’ So I’m Going.

 

My name is Paul Snow, I’m 21, and I know I’m posting this a little late, but I’m leaving this Saturday for a 3‑week mission trip to Ethiopia - I’ll be staying a week longer than the team.. This trip is something I’ve been praying about for a long time, and God has been opening every door — even down to my passport showing up right on time. That alone felt like a blessing.

In the picture, the two beautiful women with me are my mom, Melissa Wood, and her best friend. And no — before anyone asks — I’m not that good with the ladies. I wish. They’re just the ones who keep me in line and make sure I don’t miss my flight.

I’ll be serving in ministry with my mom, who leads the ministry, and while I’m there I’ll finally get to meet my brother — someone I’ve never met before — who lives in Ethiopia with his wife and their two kids. Just knowing I’ll get to meet him, hug him, and spend time with his family is emotional in a way that’s hard to explain. It’s something I’ve carried in my heart for years.

During these three weeks, I’ll also be helping with grounds work, serving the community, and supporting the ministry however I can. This trip is about faith, family, and stepping into what God has prepared for me.

I’m asking for support from anyone who feels led to help. Donations will go toward travel, ministry needs, and the work we’ll be doing on the ground. Anything you give truly helps, and I’m grateful for every prayer and every bit of support.

“Declare His glory among the nations, His marvelous works among all the peoples.” — Psalm 96:3

Thank you for standing with me as I step into this moment God has opened for me. Your support means more than you know.
