We leave in THREE days!!!
Wow! Our departure is just around the corner! It is happening so fast and we are so excited about bringing the Gospel to Catamarca. In the last couple of weeks leading up to our departure we have been very busy. We wrapped up our last fundraiser, the scrap metal drive, a couple of weeks ago. It was our most productive fundraiser yet. We were even donated a 16 foot box truck to sell and the proceeds will go towards the mission trip. God has been so faithful to provide for this trip.
Last week we got together as a team for a BBQ for a time of fellowship, we also got all of our travel documents and itineraries. Being able to see and hold the documents and lists made it all seem so real and so close. We have also gotten together to finalize the VBS programs we will be bringing to the kids in Catamarca. We will be bringing two programs, one about creation and one about the gospel. Each program will have crafts, games and music, and even some prizes!
We are also excited to be helping out with a teen night and talking with the couples in the church. There are also a couple of construction projects that we have been asked to help with. We will be helping put a roof on a widows home and build benches.
Please continue to keep us in your prayers as we enter our final days of preparation. Please pray for spiritual and physical protection, for travel mercies, for courage to share the gospel, and open hearts to receive the love of Christ.
We plan on regularly posting to this blog while we are in Catamarca, so check in with us and follow along with the team.
Thank you and God Bless!
