Beijing China
Next week I will be going to Beijing China with Ian Vickers on a business as mission trip. Ian and I met when we were both attending a bible study at our church called Noble Men. Ian and I quickly connected because of our love for endurance sports. Ian and Christ Community Church recently spun off an organization called Global Partners in Hope with a mission to help churches spread the word of God in China. They do this through a variety of platforms. Ian asked my self and two other Christian business leaders to help him give a talk entitled Ethics in Management to 50 Chinese CEOs. Because of the broad range of people Lisa and I deal with in owning our businesses the topic of ethics is especially close to us.
I am asking for three things
1. If God is leading you to support this mission please send a check to
Global Partners in Hope
C/O Christ Community Church
404 S 108 Ave
Omaha, NE 68154
Write on the memo Paladino China Trip
2. Pray that God gives us the opportunity to have an amazing impact in men lives.
3. As you many know this will be my fourth business as mission trip in fourteen months. International travel combined with the change in my routine creates a wear and tear on my body that is comparable to that of running a marathon. Pray that I feel God’s strength during the trip, that I am able to sleep well despite the 12 hour time difference, that I do not become ill from eating different foods among other things. And finally that when I return that I do not get anxious about anything that happened at work while I was gone and I smoothly transition into my normal routine.
