First of all, to Help God's World Photography, is ultimately, to help others, in Jesus' name.
The organizations for which I photograph, are the ones who must get the most use out of them. These photos are taken to help get the organizations' word and works out to their supporters. To use an old saying, it is my prayer that "a photograph is worth a thousand words."
God's World Photography has many needs . . .
Please, read on for how you can help . . .
So, the first and greatest need is your prayers for the ongoing needs of this ministry. Thank You.
Sometimes the people I meet would appreciate an older but working cameras. During my travels I would be happy to forward these cameras. Believe me that they are very appreciated!
Travel
I have been fortunate to be able to piggy back my travels with others going to a destination, thus getting a better-than-published air fare. Even as such I must pay for any travel and, there are still those times when I must go by myself.
Do you have travel vouchers or air miles you could donate?
Room, Board, and Local Travel
Happily, since I am working with missions, often times, my room and board are taken care of on their compound and the local travel is provided by the organization.
If a hotel is needed, safe and good hotels can be had for decent prices (or decent hotels can be had for good prices.)
Do you have a condo in the Caribbean I can use as a full time base of operations?
I didn't think so but I thought I would try!
This has to be the hardest part of the web presentation to write. Yet, as I said above, there is a need, and I need your prayerful help to do it. So, the bottom line is that it takes money to do what God's World Photography does. All of the above, film, cameras, travel, keeping the "home fires burning" while I am away take . . . but I'm not saying anything you haven't heard before. So, bottom line, donations are welcome - and needed.

p.s.
Doing missions work has been compared to climbing down in a well. The most important thing is knowing who is holding your rope. Matthew 6:25-34, written below, shows in Whom I trust to hold my rope.
Matthew 6:25-33
25Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment? 26Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they? 27 Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature? 28And why take ye thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin: 29And yet I say unto you, That even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. 30Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, which to day is, and to morrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith? 31Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed? 32(For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things. 33But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.
The King James Version, (Cambridge: Cambridge) 1769.
