While I know not everyone is called to be a part of my monthly support team and that is ok! :)
There is still a very important way that you can help me. I'm excited to share with people about my ministry in Lithuania, but I don't know enough people who I can invite to be a part of my team. So, if you were going into full time Christian work who would you invite to be a part of your team? Who are 10 people would you write a letter to or call first to meet with to share about the exciting adventure God has called you to? Is there someone in your small group, your facebook friends, your neighborhood?
Would you be willing to invite them to meet with me? I would love to meet with your friends, your family or your co-workers over coffee, dinner or just after church. It's easy and it's fun to connect people with a heart for the lost, the world and Jesus.

The Well
One of the challenges of living overseas is being away from family, friends and the community that we as human's become dependent upon. I'm excited that I know that people are praying for me, but in addition to other's prayers I am developing a Rope team. The Rope team is a group of people committed to communicating with me on a monthly basis by Skype or email. These people commit for a year to love, to serve, to come along side me to support me emotionally, send care packages and also to keep the Well Elders informed about my needs and the ministry. One of my favorite memories of my time in Lithuania was a friend who sent fall leaves to me in a care package! If you want to be a leader or to simply be involved in this way contact me by email at tiana.weaver@cru.org
Like all people I need friendship, love, encouragement, memories and joy! I'm excited that you would consider serving me in these ways. If you are ever traveling and or in Lithuania please drop me a line and let me know as I would love to see you and it would mean the world to me.
