Dear Family and Friends

I am a recent honors graduate from FSHS. As I move beyond high school, I am looking forward to pursuing the future that God has for me. I will be taking part in a life-changing internship program next year and I would like to invite you to become a part of what God plans to do in and through me in this adventure.

Beginning in August of 2007, I will be participating in the Elevate Internship Program of Healing Place Church in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. Elevate is a nine month ministry internship designed to equip me to discern God’s will and carry out His work through the local church. I will learn what being a Jesus-style leader is all about while solidifying a strong Biblical foundation. Elevate will give me the opportunity to explore God’s calling on my life while acquiring practical ministry skills. During this internship, I will be serving alongside Healing Place Church staff in a particular ministry area. I will have the opportunity to share the love of Jesus with thousands of people by serving at the church, doing mission work within our community, and taking a short-term overseas mission trip.

The cost of the Elevate program is $10,150. This includes housing, utilities, books, training, retreats, food, and road expenses. Because Elevate is a full-time program I will not be able to work. Therefore I must also raise money in advance for all necessary food, gas, and other needs before hand as well. I will need and am aiming at raising an estimated $350 a month for these needs.

As I dedicate these nine months solely to the Lord, I would greatly appreciate it if you would consider supporting me through prayer and financial support. Your support is critical in seeing lives changes.

I would ask that you consider supporting me and God’s call on my life by becoming a part of my support team. Please indicate to me by phone, letter, or email your decision to become a member of my support team. As a member of my team, I would like to personally thank you by sending you periodic updates. Please provide me with contact information so I can keep you informed. My contact information can be found below.

Please make checks payable to Jordan Gautreau, you may even send in support via internet through credit card at healingplacechurch.org keyword: elevate.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at 225-278-4328 or at jesuscsaves@yahoo.com and I
would be glad to answer any questions you may have. For you to better track my journey through Elevate, I
will be posting regular updates on my blog at jesuscsaves.blogspot.com. Thank you so much for supporting me in the Elevate internship.


Sincerely Yours,
Jordan Gautreau

new post

Ok guys so i know it's been a really long time since i last posted, i don't know how many days it's been like tori, but i know it's been a long time. So i guess i'll give you alittle update.

not too much has been going on with me. mainly work, work, work, and church. So when i'm not working at work, i'm working on our new old house. Yeah we bought an old house and now we're fixing it up. So yeah, i'm working and working and working.

The good news is that with so much work i'm making a good bit of money. Well only from my job work not my family work. That's for free.

OH also tweez let me borrow this really awesome book called "communicating for a change" by andy stanley. it's a slammin book. basically the book is on really connecting with your audience and keeping there attention the whole time by using a one point sermon...very informative...
