Lauren Tedder

Hello and God bless you!
My name is Lauren Tedder. I am a born-again Christian and a nursing student at the University of Arizona. The Lord has given me a deep desire to serve others as His hands and feet through medical missionary work.
This July, God has provided me with the opportunity to serve at the Hope Alive Clinic in the Philippines—a birthing clinic dedicated to caring for women and their families during the antepartum (before birth), intrapartum (during labor), and postpartum (after birth) periods. This clinic is gospel-centered, demonstrating the love of Christ to these women and their families through actions, words, and prayers.
To serve in the Philippines, I need your support. The round-trip flight costs approximately $1,700, and the total expense for my month-long stay—including room and board, travel insurance, field coordination and training, personal expenses, and the trip planning fee with ACTION Ministries (the sending ministry)—is around $2,600. Altogether, the total cost comes to about $4,300.
I ask that you prayerfully consider supporting me on this mission trip. Whether or not you are able to give financially, I deeply appreciate your prayers for me, the Hope Alive Clinic, the people of the Philippines, and ACTION Ministries.
Thank you for taking the time to read my story and for the prayers you lift up on my behalf.
