Why We Are Going

by Danielle

What we really want to do is bring people hope. This word “Hope” is a word we are still trying to fully comprehend. We know that it’s not easy to tell people that there is hope when they have so little here on earth. But that’s the awesome part! Our hope is not in the things of this world but our hope is in a never-ending life with God! Once someone accepts Jesus as their personal savior they receive the Holy Spirit; they receive God’s grace and His mercy; and they are filled with a new found HOPE!

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to His great mercy has caused us to be born again to a living HOPE through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, to obtain an inheritance which is imperishable and undefiled and will not fade away, reserved in heaven for you (1 Peter 1:3-4).

When we are a child of God, we have hope in God’s loyal unconditional love and His immense compassion and concern for us! His blessings are new every morning, which proves beyond a shadow of a doubt that He is faithful to us and always meets our needs!

The Lord’s loving kindnesses indeed never cease, for His compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is Your faithfulness. “The Lord is my portion,” says my soul, “therefore I have HOPE in Him.” The Lord is good to those who wait for Him, to the person who seeks Him (Lamentations 3:22-25).

We ask for your prayers as we prepare all the details for our trip. Please be praying that God would strengthen us and unite us even more as a team. God is going to do a work not only in our lives but also in the lives of those we will come in contact with. Pray for strength and safety. Pray that our focus would constantly be on God so that we may accomplish that which He has sent us to do.
