ONe God, ONe Purpose!
Last saturday i returned home from a mission trip to Toronto, Canada! Toronto is one of the largest cities and we worked mainly witht the homeless and marginalized people of the city. We would help prepare food and serve it and talk to people from the street who would drop in for a meal. While doing that on one particular day i got to talk with a lady who mentioned that she wass Buddhist, i sat and listened as i prayed that i might have words to speak to her. It made me so thankful for the hope i do have and even more that when i return home i might pray for her and people like her who believe in false gods. We also handed out lunches in parks and socks and toiletries. Most people were very greatful some just no expression at all. Going in to the trip i was a bit nervous to talk to people and thinking just another mission trip. God totally slashed that idea and really opened my eyes to how he is at work all over. And another cool thing that our city director said was you dont know the affect you have on people to maybe long after your gone and may never see the people again. Our team was so unified another great part of the trip with a variety of young and old on the trip. All this great stuff and there definately was hurdles before and during that satan was attacking us. God helped us prevail and do the work we were asked! Well it is almost june and time for another summer. My job cleaning will be done next week. I have picked up more hours at bath and body works which is where i will stay for the summer unless something else comes along. Please pray for a steady long term job! love to all, brittany noelle
