As I continue to finish up preparations for our trip, I am constantly reminded and reflecting on all that has been given to make this venture possible. The team of 15 that is going is not out of the ordinary, but each have given of their resources, time, vacations, talents, to share the compassion and love of Jesus in another land for a short time. But many of you have also given to make this a reality....many have given sacrificially of your finances. Many have given generously. Many have given supplies. Many of you have prayed and will be praying in the next two weeks. We praise God for you. We could not have done it without you. We've needed you...you've been so important to us. We want you to know that though you are on this side of the ocean, you ARE part of this team too. Our desire is for you to realize that and be affirmed in that. It's amazing. It's God's plan. Jesus talks about the body, and how it functions. Perhaps you would like to read this and be encouraged in the part that you have had! We have been greatly encouraged by you!
"But in fact God has arranged the parts in the body, every one of them, just as he wanted them to be. ......if one part is honored, every part rejoices with it. Now you are the body of Christ, and each one of you is a part of it." 1 Corinthians 12:18,26b,27
