Missions

It is interesting.  I (Vicki) have loved Jesus as long as I can remember.  Yet missions has never been an area that tugged on my heart.  For years Children's Ministry consumed me, then there were the six to eight years of youth ministry.  For the past two years we have been working with troubled marriages.  Yet it appears missions is tugging at both of us....

Almost five years ago we went on a cruise to the Caribbean.  What a blast.  Yet as we looked at the children who lived in poverty - it pulled at us. 

God has been so amazing at meeting all of our needs and honoring our decision to get totally out of debt (two years to go!).  We are wondering about heading out on missions trips.  There is one in February down to Rocky Point we are seriously considering. 

We have been praying for direction.  We think we understand.  It will be fun to watch how Abba Father works in this to either confirm our direction or redirect us. 

All we really want to to is serve Him - bring Him all the glory and honor He deserves!!  God is so good.
