Until next time, Jarabacoa! Going on this mission trip I was able to create new relationships, try new foods, and experience the culture of another country, but at the beginning I was unsure of a lot of things. There was a constant doubt stirring inside of me. How am I supposed to minister to these kids and families if they cannot understand me? Throughout the week God began to show me that it’s not always about speaking, it’s about being the hands and feet of the him and showing others the love that God gives us. This trip showed me what it means to live a life worth living. Every life on this earth has purpose and is being called to do something greater than themselves and I believe that the first step of finding that is understanding the true meaning of how to love others the way Jesus loves us. Romans 12: 9-13 ”Love must be sincere. Hate what is evil; cling to what is good. Be devoted to one another in love. Honor one another above yourselves. Never be lacking in zeal, but keep your spiritual fervor, serving the Lord. Share with the Lord’s people who are in need. Practice hospitality.“
