Musical Mission Trip 2012



I took well over 2,500 pictures while on this trip but I thought I'd share a few from each day and tell you a little about what I experienced each day as well.

Day 1:  Salida Colorado   (June 9, 2012)
Today we shared with Temple Baptist Church in Salida, CO at a park across from the church.  The view was incredible! Here are a few pictures!

Day 2: Cortez, Colorado (June 10, 2012) 
Today was my birthday!  We went to the Great Sand Dunes and shared with  First Assembly of God in Cortez, CO.

The Sand Dunes were amazing!  Huge mountains of sand surrounded by Mountains!  The view was breathtaking!   Sharing tonight several people came forward, one was a young girl whose father died the week before.  She said she had lost hope in God, but He opened her eyes tonight!  (Thank you Jesus!)

Tonight one scene in particular spoke to me as well, now I've been there since the beginning so I know the story line however the character of Aunt Lydia really hit me this night.  I had an amazing Aunt who always showed me that I was loved!

Hello

I know its been a while since I posted anything here but life gets busy sometimes! I just returned home from a two week mission trip to the Southwest and back! Incredible! I've seen and experienced things that words just can't describe accurately.  While on the trip with 42 others  (mostly Highschoolers) we read a book called : Not a Fan! Anyone who proclaims they are a christian needs to read this book! I will be sharing more about that in another post!  I guess the biggest thing I learned abut myself over the two weeks was that I want to be intentional in everything I do!  I want to be obedient to whatever, wherever, and whenever God calls me. And That I want to do it now!  Luke 9:62 (The Message) Jesus Said:  No procrastination. No backward looks, you can't put God's Kingdom off till tomorrow.  Seize the day.
That is how I want to live each day! No looking back, no waiting till tomorrow. I know I can't do it on my own!  This also means that every area of my life needs to be completely turned over to God, not just the ministry stuff! And though I may fall short sometimes I know I am not alone.   Pray for me as I emabark on this new journey and new way of life!

Have a Beautiful Day!
