Dear Northside Family,

  Thank you very much fro supporting me this summer.  Our trip to Honduras was a huge success.  Your help was greatly appreciated and was put into action.  I am thankful to have supporters like you who support me in spreading the love of Jesus Christ.  I was blessed to have the opportunity to participate in this mission trip but I can honestly say that you were there working alongside me.  A number of Christians will never have the chance to work for the Lord in this manner but you continue to support those of us who are able.  You made this trip possible for me and I can not thank you enough for that.  I have enclosed some statistics from the trip and I hope that you feel the trip was as successful as I do.  I hope that my career in the mission field has only begun and I would be blessed to continue receiving support from loving Christians like you.  Dios es amor-God is Love.

In His Name,
Matthew Taylor
