MOVE07 is officially off and running! Everyone got checked into the hotel last night and we had an awesome couple hours as a team to pray together and talk together about our next few days on this amazing journey.
The team got a chance to share with each other why they are here. Some students are here on this trip because they know that this is their next step and that this is what God has called them to. Some students are on this trip because they want to let other people know that they matter to God and they matter to us. Some students are here because they know that God has called them to grow and take steps further down the road like Mexico or Chicago missions trips and that this is a step in that journey.
While we are all gathered here for different reasons initially, we are all here on this trip now because other people matter. Other people matter in Mexico, other people matter in Chicago and other people matter right here in Michiana.
Over the next few days we will be working and serving all throughout the community as we let people know that they matter to Jesus. Continue to pray for the team as we start off strong working all day tomorrow and really dive in to our projects. Pray for the weather and pray for team unity as we begin to get pushed to our limits tomorrow.
If your student is on this trip, leave a comment. If your friend is on this trip, leave a comment. If you don’t know anybody on this trip, but would like to encourage and pray for us, leave a comment. We would really like to hear from friends and family as we are pressing forward in what God has called us to this week.
We will continue to update tomorrow evening with updates on the work projects and possibly even some photos!
