Pray For Team Canada

In the morning 16 NEHBCers will leave for Sasakatchewan Canada and spend seven days engaging the First Peoples with the Gospel. I am really excited about his team and one of the reasons is because of the diversity. Here is how our team breaks down:

6 High School Students - 2 are on their 1st international mission trip and the rest are heading to the field for a 2nd time.

1 Empty Nester Couple - I am grateful for their wisdom and their willingness to reach across generations as an example in sharing Christ by living out Acts 1:8.

A Family of 4 - Father, Mother, a son in middle school and a daughter in elementary school. We need more families willing to go to the field together for the sake of the kingdom.

A mother will be joining her high school son on this trip.

A middle school boys' bible study teacher. Teachers you cannot talk to your classes about he importance of missions and the Great Commission unless you are actively living for it yourself.

Pastor Nathan's apprentice and I round out the team.

Among the team there are multiple ethnic groups represented which will certainly play a big role where we are going to be working.

The diversity of age, experience, and season of life make this team unique. They are a snapshot of what the church should be. People from all walks of life working together for the glory of God.  I can't wait to see what God is going to do through this team and I will be keeping you updated on our trip right here. Please remember to pray for us throughout this next week.
