We are going to Ecuador!

I believe God has called us to go to Ecuador to serve the children at For His Children orphanages at Quito and Latacunga. I believe God has called us to go to Ecuador to serve the people who are living and struggling in and around the Quito dump. I believe God has called us to go to Ecuador to serve Him in whatever ways we might be His instruments.

We go trusting the Lord has plans for us to share our gifts there, and the people we meet will share their gifts with us. We go hoping the Lord will lead and guide us there and back, and all long the way will positively and divinely transform us. We go seeking to serve the Lord there, and help people in such a way that we will be doing God's work with our mouths and our hands.

It is our goal of course to be a blessing for the people we meet. In this way, we hope to go there for Jesus and do what he did for children in Mark 10:16, "And Jesus took the children up in his arms, laid his hands on them, and blessed them." And so we to Ecuador because we can't do all of this for Jesus by simply staying home!

Peace to all who read this! Peace to all our friends in Ecuador! Peace and thanks to anyone and everyone who prays for our mission trip to Ecuador, and to those who sponsor us with their gifts!
