Hello, all. I just sent out a fun email regarding a mission trip I’m going on. Me and some folk from my church are headed to Costa Rica to work with a church down there that we have a pretty strong relationship with. I don’t even know how many years our church has been working with them, but it’s been a while.
We (my church, I’ve never actually been) normally go in July-ish. This time we will be going December 16-23, and we are going to see a lot of what this church does. They have four or five missions they have started across their beautiful country, and we get to see like three of ‘em in one trip! It is going to be a great chance to strengthen our church’s relationship with theirs, and for those of us going to get a good introduction to international missions.
Missions is what God wants us (Christians) to do. He tells us we should be going and making disciples, and that we need to go all over the world. The whole world needs Him. And if we want to be a part of what He is doing, then we need to go tell them all about Him! It’s the best thing we can do in our life. He is the greatest gift in the world, and He offers Himself to everyone freely. And while it is Him that does the seeking of the lost, and the offering, and the saving, it is us that gets to be a part of that when we obey. If we love Him, which we should because He loves us, and if we love them, which we should because He loves them, then we need to tell them. Everyone.
And we do that through missions. We go to Costa Rica, we go to Africa, we go next door, we go wherever God asks. But no matter what, we go.
I will be writing about this trip, hopefully, and I hope everyone will enjoy the reading and that God will use it for His glory. Peace, love and soul train! Psalm 116:7
