This was another banner year for the Mission Journeys, as the outreach ministry continued to experience remarkable growth and impact.
In 2006, Mission Journeys saw record numbers with 29 trips and nearly 525 participants!
These work, teaching, and/or evangelistic trips, ministered in several different mission locations on 5 different continents. Our volunteers served in Brazil, Mexico, Romania, Taiwan, Tanzania, and in AZ, KY, LA, MS, SD, WA, right here in the United States.
While time and space won't allow for sharing all the stories, here are some of the many great things that have happened...
A precious Muslim family and a wonderful Christian Church in Tanzania hosted two Mission Journeys teams this past summer. Each team spent one week in with the Muslim family, and one week with the church. The whole experience was life-changing and miraculously so.
The Muslim family was so gracious and loving to everyone, it was wonderful in that way. But, not only were they great hosts, they also were interested enough to attend our morning devotions and evening worship. The wife even interpreted for one of the ministers, and was great at it. They helped transport the group to work projects and ministry locations. They pitched in to help with the physical work and benevolent work at the orphanages and schools. Also, they taught us about Islam and they were interested to learn about Christianity. We met and enjoyed visits with 15-20 of their Muslim family & friends. The whole situation was a neat kind of miraculous!
