Macedonia Here I Come

  • Macedonia Mission Trip April 27-May 9
  • In just a few short days I will visit the country of Macedonia. No, I haven't had a vision of anyone asking for help for me to come. Our high school seniors picked this for their senior trip and as one of their sponsors I have the privilege of going with them. I am looking forward to it but ,have been stressed at times trying to prepare to go. We are only allowed one backpack to take all we need for twelve days. Any ideas? We are teaching the students that you can live with less. I'll TRY anything once. Please pray for us in this way:
    Pray that we can be a blessing to the those working there and that we will strengthen the bridge they have been building to the Macedonians there.
    Pray for our spouses and children we leave behind.
    Pray our seniors hearts will be soft and pliable for God's shaping and molding.
    Pray for strength and wisdom for us sponsors as we lead this group.
    May His light shine through us!
