Mission Trip Challenge Recap
By Bryan | May 18, 2010
Let me just give you a recap of what our Mission director: Becca Shaffer had to share this week. Of course if you missed it LIVE you missed someone who is passionate about Being the Church.
Here are some of what was said:
“Global expedition has a motto for this summer 1 million acts of Love . Jesus demonstrated sacrificial love, and his sacrifice is our standard that we should live by. Jesus drew large crowds of people, but took time to pull away and touch one person’s life with his love. Our part to play is going to chicago, and God is asking us to sacrifice for others, whether through our giving or our going. A.w. Tozer made this statement: “God is looking for people through whom He can do the impossible. What a pity we plan only things we can do by ourselves.” I want to challenge you to sacrifice through your giving. Let me ask, “what can God do in your life by your giving, through your sacrifice how can God make a difference in your own life? “
1st John 3:17-18
”If anyone has material possessions and sees his brother in need but has no pity on him, how can the love of God be in him? Dear children, let us not love with words or with tongue, but with actions and in truth.”.
After the presentation the congregation stepped up, and let me say “Victory has some of the most generous and passionate people.” You are AWESOME.
I am both challenged and energized to be apart of this Mission. God has called us to Go and as a church we are doing just that. We are not Talking church we are Being the church.
