2 Days to go!!!


This past Sunday we had our commissioning service and it was one to remember. Our team was surrounded with the prayer and support of our congregation, prayer partners and home team. Everyone in the group was moved by the love and unity that poured over us as we were launched into our role as a missionaries. Thank you so much for everyone who came out!

As we are preparing to go, the next two days will include vast amounts of running around, last minute inoculations, mass amounts of packing and spiritual preparation. Certainly for some of us there are mixed feelings. Excitement is an obvious feeling that I see in the others around me. But still there are more subtle hints of nervousness and confidence. These two feelings are particularly interesting and I believe that God can use both for the good of the group. Those of us walking in a feeling of confidence are humbled by the prospect of leadership and preparation while those of us feeling a bit more nervous are inspired and challenged by the confidence of others. The beautiful thing is that God has brought us together in love and unity. And its by that love that the people in the air ports, in Belize and here in Canada will know that we are sons of daughters of the living God!
"Your love for one another will prove to the world that you are my disciples" John 13:35 NLT
Everyone pray for good weather, safe travels, and for God's Kingdom to come!

  1. I spent a wonderful month in Placencia, Belize this year and it is a beautiful country. I am not sure what area you are going to but rest assured that the food is great, the people are lovely and there were no issues with my safety. Have a wonderful journey, wish I was going back with you.
