Countdown has started!

 

It is getting close to our team departure! I have already started to look at my packing list to see if I have everything, which I don't! But it will all come together soon. I was looking through some of the old pictures of previous trips. I came across 2019, my last time I worked in the medical clinics. I remember each of those pictures and experiences like it was yesterday. And it is also bitter sweet. It was the last year me and my dad went on a mission trip together. We have gone on so many trips together, and he has put the spirit of missions in my soul. So many stories he has of his trips has encouraged me to to want to do this. Not everyone can GO, but you can go out in your workplace, community, or locally with your church. You can also support your missions through church or just independently. 

I am looking forward to getting back into the clinics. I have to admit, I have a little fear. It has been a while. But God's got this!

Just volunteering is a show of God's love and grace. It just takes courage to step out and speak up. Trust me, that is not always easy and I have to defeat this fear everyday. Sometimes it is easy, but sometimes it can be scary. But God's got your back!

I usually have a prayer partner but the last few trips, I have not had a dedicated one. So as I prepare my heart for this trip, please be my prayer partner and pray for courage to speak, the words to say and the actions to move forward. Pray for our team to be safe while there and keep the illnesses away and for our return home. 

1 Chronicles 16:24; “Declare his glory among the nations, his marvelous works among all the peoples!”

Romans 10:13-15; “For “everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.” How then will they call on him in whom they have not believed? And how are they to believe in him of whom they have never heard? And how are they to hear without someone preaching?  And how are they to preach unless they are sent? As it is written, “How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the good news!” 

Blessings to all,
