a team of young people learning what it means to have gifts from God to use for His glory…and how powerful they are when we step back and let Him use them…

1 more week...

ONE MORE WEEK! crazy? unbelievably so...haha
it has just snuck up on us SO fast. but i am getting more and more excited as we get closer...so excited!
wednesday night, sarah and i met up with Luke Erickson and Diana Swensson at church and spent a couple hours recording The Project: HOSEA scripts - in spanish! yay! so we have that and we will be able to use it and do the project down in mexico if we end up needing it. so crazy that its finally coming together.
so praise God that they were willing to not only translate the scripts but then to come and read/record them. they did an awesome job and it sounds great.
so THANK YOU to them!

And on Thursday we spent time running through the whole show (project), still needs some work - its been awhile since we've done it, but itll get there. :)
we also had some big group time, just going over plans for when we get there and the "business" details of things.

so crazy that we leave in a week! its been a long process but it is finally here. God has led us here, fought the crazy spiritual battle, and somehow - by His grace...here we are. i am just loving this practically tangible example of Gods faithfulness, of His comfort, of His protection, and His sovereignty. so great to have something you know you can look back on when things get crazy again - and we know they will...- and just KNOW that it was God. and its something satan can never take away.

and next Thursday we are having half of our normal meeting, but then at 830 we are fighting some spiritual warfare, baby!
we are going to have an hour of worship time, using all different kinds of worship, using the weapon God's given us to fight.
whether it be art or dance or poetry or prayer or singing, its a battle. :)
its a time to get the missions teams together, getting our focus back on God and stomping satan out of it before we leave.
so come and join us in the gym at Edinbrook Church and join us in the presence of God, worshipping together as a body, fighting the fight together.

and total side note - (probably mostly for girls, haha, but maybe guys too) there is an author that i am loving, her books are GREAT and just filled with scripture and just really great stories of God working in people's lives, all fiction, but she's a MN author. and i bring it up because just this week i was re-reading one of the books and just realizing how important it is to just follow Gods call and trust that He knows best - even when it doesnt make sense at all.

Keep us in your prayers as we get final details in place this week!
and join us on Thursday!
