Grace Church

Pownin in Ronan

The Lord is my strength and my shield, my heart trust in him and I am helped, Pslam 27:8. Talk, prepare, talk, sit in the car, prepare, talk, sit, talk, it seemed liked that's all we did until now. Me and everyone on this team was so excited to share Jesus, with everyone we came in contact with and today was our first day of outreach. The Church family has been so welcoming and testifying to the fact that we are all one body in Christ. Pastor Rob, Mrs. Michelle, and Tracy have been telling us all week that this was our mission trip. They have also allowed and pushed me to be a leader on this team, and we have rocked worship and game time. Its almost unreal how much Christ's love has done already and we've only had two days in this town. The youth group kids, church elders, and local youtheses, have opened up so much and its evident that God has touched them. The people of this town that I feel especially called to are the Native Americans. Today Morgan, Christa, Brooke, Lindsey, Aaron, Issac, and I went to a community of Indians, but there were no kids in sight and the ones that we did talk to didn't come tonight. The former pastor of the church told us that they were very skeptical of the white man, and had many troubles with trust. We are on a huge reservation and I pray that we will have more opportunities to share with our native brothers. I also would like y'all to pray for patience, and following God's will. I wanna save the whole town, but I can't be discouraged or get so selfish that I want to do it all. Without the Lord's strength and guidance I can do nothing. Everyone is healthy but tired, but Jenni wasn't feeling well today, and Sean got bit by a rattle snake...just joking. The Holy Spirit is evident on this trip, and He is doing great things in Ronan. Thank you for your prayers and support.

With love from your brother in Christ,
