Some additional stories from last night's outreach...
A young man said that the Lifehouse Drama was a summary of his life and afterwards committed his life to Christ.
Pastor Dennis shared that he had received a prophetic word twenty years ago that he would appear on national television. As a result of our event last night, the national news filmed the entire event and will be broadcasting it throughout the entire island in the near future. P7 was interviewed afterwards in addition to Pastor Dennis and the other performers. An interesting side note - Anthony Acevedo shared last night that while he was praying over the trip this past month at home, he felt that God kept telling him that our trip would cause such an uprising that it would make the news. What a powerful thing to see how God draws all things together for his purposes.
We had a GREAT sound system, stage, and lighting to work with. If you could have seen the first system we looked at when we arrived.... oh my. As we prayed the past few days, we trusted God to provide for our needs and he most certainly delivered. Even when we arrived and foudn a few things missing yesterday, the tech crew managed to give us everything we needed. They kept going back to the truck and bringing out more. It was like the multiplying of the fish and loaves.
We sat in a circle last night when we returned to the hotel. For about an hour, the kids went around and shared about their experience. How awesome to hear the impact this trip has made in their lives. They have seen the faithfulness of God, witnessed miracles, and experienced how it feels to minister with God's annointing.
This morning, we are resting at the hotel. This afternoon we will head over to the church for lunch, watch a local soccer game, and prep for tonight.
Welcome to our Missions Trip Blog
44 youth and adults from The Rock of Gainesville will be serving on a missions trip in Maypen, Jamaica, from July 9 - 15, 2008. Throughout the trip, we will post updates about our experiences here on this site. Please feel free to review it often for the latest news. When we return, the students will be posting their thoughts on the trip here as well.
We are excited about the opportunity and ask that you pray for us before and during our trip. We are asking God to do a work in us and through us.
