Day: January 5, 2016

Wednesday’s Schedule

We will have breakfast and morning devotions at 7:00am. We then leave at 8:15 am tomorrow morning for a community actually named 3 de Octubre (October 3) where we will go door witnessing to the community. After lunch we will then host a community wide feeding for about 200 people where Ed and Mary will share there testimonies and Isaiah will share the gospel and lead a time of response. We will then have an early service, around 4:00pm and God fittingly laid on my heart the feeding of the multitude in Luke 9:10-17.

When we get back and after dinner, we will sort out and create 40 separate clothing bags for the following days activities. (I’ll probably be working on Thursdays message)

Everyone was tired tonight, but I’ll carve out some time tomorrow and try to get each one to share something as well as the pictures I k ow some took from today’s journey.

Keep praying and God Bless. Tomorrow the real work begins!

We have arrived… safely.

We are settling in at the hacienda and most of the team is sorting tote contents. We had a time of orientation, and of course there are always challenges to overcome for the week as things do change on a mission trip, but we have committed ourselves to be Gumby’s and will bend and be flexible.

All the luggage arrives as did all the team members. My goal is to get others to share tonight, but rest may be the first priority for some. We begin early tomorrow. Continue in your prayers.

Quiet Anticipation

  So it’s 2:15am on Tuesday morning. The house is both quiet but also buzzing with anticipation. As everyone gets ready to go, I am reflecting on the years past and what we are about to encounter. Leading up to the trip, the excitement I had in years past had not washed over me yet, and while I’m still not overflowing, I can finally feel the anticipation building. “What will God do through us?” “What will God do to us?”
While I overindulge in caffeine, as the picture represents, and as I have reached the end of this post, the quiet has become an awakening, both for me and for the house. God do what you will… ’cause ready or not… here we come!
