Whats the good news? Keep reading and find out!
First off, thank you for taking the time to read this blog. Seeing the number of views has been really uplifting. In this world where our attention span is as long as a Twitter post or a text message, it can be difficult to sit and read something longer than 140 letters. So again, thank you!
Today (May 13th) is the beginning of our 40 day prayer chain!
Please keep the missions team in your prayers, even if its just 1 second for 40 days! It will end on the day we return from missions. There is also prayer nights at LA Grace Church on Thursdays at 8pm if you are around the area.
1 - Day Restaurant!
Its this Saturday, May 18th! Come get your Dontaksu, Kim Chee Fried Rice, Spaghetti, and Dukkboki from 11am - 1pm. Food will go FAST so buy your tickets ($5) or come out early and get some good food. There is also delivery for large orders in Koreatown. The mission team will be working there so come meet us and hang out.
So here's the good news...
About a month ago, Dalia's brother and his family came from Ecuador to Los Angeles for a trip. The Choi family opened their house for them to stay and they came out to church and was deeply touched by the hospitality.
He has generously volunteered to pay for a bus to transport the team around the entire time we are going to be there. Thats about $1000 US dollars which is not cheap in any countries standards! We have been praying about our transportation so this is just the beginning of God answering our prayers.
ALSO...
Dalia's other brother is providing us with mattresses to sleep on while we are in Otavalo. It is going to be cold in Otavalo since it is up in the mountains and they are buying mattresses and bringing them up for us to sleep on. Praise God!
*Dalia is the lady we are working with in Ecuador to help coordinate our trip. She has been traveling around Ecuador sharing the gospel and trying to improve the conditions of schools*
The last bit of updates!
We are expecting to reach out to 240 High School students in Otavalo on Tuesday (June 18th) in the morning. Please pray that the Holy Spirit will move through the students and that the missions team will be filled with the Spirit and be able to effectively spread the word of God and His love.
One request the people of Otavalo are asking for are toothbrushes and toothpaste. We are trying to raise money to purchase these items through all our fundraising activities.
If you would like to help donate money, here is the link:
You can also donate money to a specific team member as well by putting their name in the memo section.
Thank you again!
40 days!
