Happy Cinco de Mayo!!!!
During our morning devotion, we reflected on Psalm 60: 5-6, “Find rest, O my soul, in God alone; my hope comes from him. He alone is my rock and my salvation; he is my fortress I will not be shaken.” This was very fitting considering the relaxing day we spent on Catalina Island, which included snorkeling, cliff jumping, receiving massages, and just soaking up God’s beautiful creation. However, our wonderful devotional leader, Rachel, pointed out that our version of relaxation is a little skewed. True rest can only be found in Christ. In this regard, it has been an extremely restful week for us because we have seen and felt God constantly. We have been humbled yet have felt empowered. We have seen an impact in our work yet have a yearning to continue the work the Lord has planned for us back home. Thank you to everyone who has prayed for us during this week… Thank you to our amazing missionary host, Score International… And a special thank you to Christina, who became aware of leading this trip just two short weeks before we left and did a phenomenal job. She kept us laughing, she constantly encouraged us in our faith, and she perfectly demonstrated God’s love to us. We’re looking forward to the journey back to the States tomorrow, and we pray that we take our experience from this week and apply it in our everyday lives. We can’t wait to get home and share more about this fantastic week!! Thanks again for keeping up with us!
