Today was a blessing to me personally hearing Victor's testimony about the previous mission trips to El Tamarindo. I have not had the privilege of going on these trips but I knew some time ago that I wanted to share in the mission experience. It was then that I approached Ken and stated that I felt God leading me to somehow encourage Riversiders in prayer support for the team. Each year I have tried to connect the congregation to the team and lend prayer support to the mission team. This year we are using the "blog" to expand that effort. It can only be as good as you allow it to be. Share your thoughts and prayer requests on this blog as often as you feel you need to.
I "connected" today in a new way to the community of El Tamarindo. I am blessed to see what has been accomplished in the past and felt the emotional impact it has made on those who have been able to go the D. R. and work as God's ambassadors. Now I know better how to pray for you.
*Pray that God will do great and mighty things with each of you this year.
*Pray for one another daily. Lift up the names of your fellow team members.
*Find out the prayer needs of each member.
Remember Jeremiah 33:3 that says "Call unto me and I will answer you and show you great and mighty things which you do not know."
Thank you Becky for starting the blog. I think this is a wonderful and effective way for the team to communicate. I will bring my laptop on the trip and can update everyone this way during the trip as well.
ReplyDeleteI spoke to Pastor Antonio this Friday, he, and the rest of the community, are looking forward to our trip.
Thank you once again Becky for establishing the blog.
