SUMMER 2015 TRIP

The 2015 summer trip was a GREAT trip with many prayers answered, trip objectives met and growth in God’s Kingdom.  On our second Sunday, I preached a message on the benefits of being a Believer, using Romans 5 as a basis for that sermon.  One of those benefits is God allowing tribulation in our life in order to “grow us”.

 

……. we also exult in our tribulations, knowing that tribulation brings about perseverance;

and perseverance, proven character; and proven character, hope; and hope does not disappoint……  

The Apostle Paul’s words in Romans 5:3-5 were made abundantly clear to the team this year as we had flight delays, baggage delays, persistent car troubles and one very important cancellation.  So God allowed trials, but we understood His purpose was to “grow us”.  

 

Despite the troubles here are some of GOD’s accomplishments during our mission this June:

                  Completed the pastor training which began in 2008

           

                  Conducted our third youth leaders training

             

                  Ministered through His Word in the villages of Kabare, Kabuga and Butaka

             

                  Served daily with a primary school in Remera and once in  a remote secondary school

             

                  Shared the Gospel clearly with schools, villages and churches 

                  Enabled time to visit with the children sponsored through One27’s scholarship program

            

                  Blessed the time of reconnection with old friends and the making of new ones

None of this would have been accomplished without God and God’s people.  Many of you supported the team through prayer and finances.  Murakoze chene’.  Thanks so much.
