Missions Trip Planning Website |
|

Kevin Paszalek has
developed a web site to help churches
plan short term mission trips. The site
contains mountains of helpful
information, links to other sources and
suppliers, free planning tools and a few
products developed out of Kevin's
experience in preparing teams for short
term missions.

Spend Your Summer in Maine
We are looking for teens to come for
staff for summer camp and are trying to
work a program where they can raise
support to come to Maine and spend the
summer doing summer camp, work projects,
growing in the Lord and just enjoying
the Lord in a unique setting.

Culture Link Feedback |
|
|
| Dear Dana:
I just want to let you know how much
I enjoyed the Culture Link Seminar this
past Saturday. Even though I have spent
some years on the mission field and have
been a part of a few short term missions
trips, I feel the seminar was both
informative and stimulating. Many of the
things that were shared I knew in my
head but it was so beneficial to have
them presented (and written down) in a
very clear and practical manner. I want
to thank both you and Don for a job well
done. The time just flew by and I would
even consider attending a second time in
order to reinforce the wealth of
knowledge that was shared. I would
strongly encourage churches and
individuals to avail themselves of this
great resource.
Nancy LoRusso

Nelson's
Nuggets “Play Us A Tune on Your
Violin!” |
|
|
I believe
that I mentioned here some weeks back
that a lady in a Mexican church asked me
to try to find her son a violin.
She had been told that her son was very
musically inclined but she could not
afford to pay for even a used violin.
I told her that if I was to find one for
her that she would need to pray that God
would put one in my path. Well
just a few weeks after returning from
Mexico, God did put one in my path.
We were helping a friend move and I
spotted a violin case. When I
asked about it, I was told that the
daughter was taking lessons but had
decided she was not interested.
When I offered to buy the violin she
gave it to me instead. The violin
is now tuned and restrung, thanks to
some friends at my church, and as of
this writing on February 10th,
it is ready to go to Mexico. Now
here is the funny part. The
missionaries that we will visit have no
idea who it was that asked me to bring a
violin. Now the church is small so
I am relying on God to help me remember
who the lady was. It will be the
first time I have carried a musical
instrument through an airport, just pray
that they don’t stop me and request that
I pray a number, because it would be a
big fat zero.
