Looking forward, I am so excited to step out in faith in Thailand! We've gotten a better picture of what we will be doing, and its pumping us up in a serious way! We're going to be trekking through Burma(Myanmar), travelling through the jungles and mountains of that country telling people about Jesus! We are going to be supporting a Burmese church plant in Thailand, helping to lead (and be led) by our passionate Burmese brothers and sisters! We are going to be working with at-risk Burmese children, teaching them and loving them! We are going to be playing and teaching music, to bless the body of Christ there! And we are going to be immersed in culture as we attend language classes, eat, live, worship, and serve with the Burmese people in Thailand! God is at work, and we get to be a part of it!
The idea that God wants to use us to further His Kingdom is so amazing - sometimes I think that God couldn't possibly use me! He couldn't possibly work through me to change peoples lives! And yet if God is for us who can be against us? What could possibly separate us from the love of God? In his hand, the weakest and most seemingly useless tool becomes a STRONG and POWERFUL agent for redemption and transformation! So don't focus on yourself - be open to be used by God! You don't have to travel accross the globe or change postal codes to make a difference; it can be as simple as stepping out in faith in your own neighborhood.
We are having a commissioning service at CMU in Winnipeg at 7:00 PM on November the 2nd (Sunday evening) - if you can, come out to hear some cool stories and worship God with us. DO IT! If you can't because of distance, we will be streaming it online!!! www.ustream.tv/channel/trek-send-off-nov-2-2014 will get you in, and you can join us from afar! (I think thats pretty cool)
So pray for us as we step out in faith! We are almost there!
