Weekend Retreat

Romania Concert Mission Trip 2007 team..Aren't we a lovely bunch?

This was at our weekend get-to-know you retreat this past weekend. It was completely awesome and I love this group so much. All of them have hearts of gold and are just so talented in a lot of ways. I am so excited to see what God is going to do in each of our hearts in about 4 weeks. He is definitely up to something good!

This is from Romans 15:5-9

5May the God who gives endurance and encouragement give you a spirit of unity among yourselves as you follow Christ Jesus, 6so that with one heart and mouth you may glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.
7Accept one another, then, just as Christ accepted you, in order to bring praise to God. 8For I tell you that Christ has become a servant of the Jews[a]on behalf of God's truth, to confirm the promises made to the patriarchs 9so that the Gentiles may glorify God for his mercy, as it is written: "Therefore I will praise you among the Gentiles; I will sing hymns to your name."

5 weeks and counting

well....it's down to the last 5 weeks before my trip. I don't think that I am emotionally and spiritually prepared for this adventure. Sometimes I almost want to back out, but then I remember how God has provided finances and a passport way too early for me to do that.
I am taking some lessons that I learned over Labor Day....to actually get to know these people and their stories and just let Christ shine THROUGH ME...not just be out to fulfill an agenda.
