Finishing up - 3rd Day Baptist in Belize - July 10, 2010

by Sarah | July 15, 2010 10:31 PM

Yesterday morning we had an amazing time with VBS. More kids came out to see what we were up to! The singing, crafts and bible stories were awesome as the kids got excited and enthralled with everything. In the afternoon we were blessed with the chance to go to a nearby mayan ruin, Altun Ha. It was a great break from ministry as we learned about the history surrounding this part of Belize. The evening was full with a great church service led by our Belizean brothers and sisters. We were all so encouraged by the testimonies and singing! Today we finished up our last day of ministry in Bermudian Landing and Lemonal. Again, VBS was incredible! We have really been connecting with the kids and we have been blessed to meet all of them. God worked through the sharing of the gospel today. For the rest of our day we hung out with the children, did some more painting of the church, and enjoyed sweet fellowship with the people in the village. Tomorrow we head out to Caye Caulker for a time of relaxation and reflection! God is so good and we cannot wait to tell you about what happened this week!

Hello Friends! I continue to pray for each of you many times each day. My heart is there with you... Just from the little that I have learned, I can just "sense" that God is working through you all in a mighty way... Keep looking to Him (as I know you are), and He will draw others to Himself through you. WOW! How humbling it is to think that the GOD OF THE UNIVERSE can bring others into "the fold" through us and our lives when we allow Him and make ourselves willing and obedient vessels...!! What an enormous responsibility we have to make ETERNAL impressions... :)

It was so nice to hear from Brent, Chad, and Hailey on the chat last night. Maybe Elizabeth will be on tonight??? :) 'Hope so... Your special group remains at the top of my list of prayer concerns, and SO MANY others are praying, too. God bless you as you continue your mission work there in Belize!

We have been praying that God will keep each of you safe and well as you serve Him in Belize. You will have life-changing stories to share about the wonderful experiences in your own lives and those who have been impacted by your ministry. God bless!
