"Beloved, it is a faithful thing that you do in all your efforts for these brothers, strangers as they are, who testified to your love before the church. You will do well to send them on their journey in a manner worthy of God. For they have gone out for the sake of the name, accepting nothing from the Gentiles. Therefore we ought to support people like these, that we may be fellow workers for the truth."
This man came at a great time as the mission teams for FBCN have just been established and revealed. It has been so great to see how each summer, our connections and love for the world, and for those who do not know truth continues to grow. Our church is intentionally sending members back to the same countries in order to strengthen the relationships with the people there.
Brandon and I are so excited that we will be traveling back to the Philippines this summer!! This year we are leading the trip with about 9 other wonderful members from the church. We will be there for 3 weeks!
Last summer our time there was so short, but God really used that time to begin rooting our heart for the people and opportunities to serve there. We are especially excited that this year we will get to experience many new things there, as well as hopefully begin to grow some relationships with the nationals.
Please begin to pray for us and with us as we prepare ourselves and our team!
Some pictures from last summer:
This summer we will be spending more time in these areas, working and serving the people in the communities.
The view from Faith Academy. I hope that we can give some swim lessons at their pool!
Though this trip is not centered around a basketball ministry, Brandon, of course, hopes to play a little! ;)
