Missions!
Matthew and I have been praying a lot about going over seas this year to tell people about Christ. We have decided to join our church in a mission trip to Haiti! We are so very excited! There is an orphanage there, The Canaan Orphanage, that our church supports and is heavily involved with.
Savannah has lived with a couple this past semester that adopted a little boy from this orphanage.
Joseph (that is his name) has a very special place in our hearts and so does this orphanage.
As many of you know, Matthew and I want to work in an orphanage as missionaries one day. We love working with kids, children amaze us. They have such pure beautiful hearts and are eager to know about their Savior Jesus Christ. But there are so many places in the world where children will never here of Christ before they leave this earth, because of starvation, disease, and being homeless.
Matthew and I have a passion to help children in these situations, we fully believe in Christ's power to change their lives. Even if the children never remember our names we pray and hope that because of us they will know and remember the Lord's name. There is a huge need and we want to be used to ehlp in this need.
We believe one of the first steps to doing this is praying for these children, being burdened for orphans as Jesus tells us to be (James 1:27). We also believe that this takes action, this is where our mission trip comes in. We want to go and be used by God for the sake of the kingdom. God means everything to us, His mission means everything to us, our entire lives are about Christ, What a blessing! We want others to also know this blessing for themselves! We want to have children grow up and tell others about this incredible lifestyle!
We believe its time to take our passion to the field :) and we couldn't be more excited! We feel so so blessed that God will use us, and humbled that he has given us so much that we know we don't deserve.
So please pray for us! We need it and covet your prayers. Nothing blesses our hearts more than to think of you going before our LORD and Savior on our behalf. What a testimony to have that people pray for us. Thank you!
