Mountain View Alliance Church, Mexico: Team Testimonials
October 6, 2008
“[One highlight was] being invited again and again into a home in Babicora, to eat and sing with the family and have them come and help us on our jobsite ….”
“I realize how we Canadians pack so much “stuff” around, and spend more of our lives taking care of our “stuff” than doing God’s work!”
"The heart that I’ve had to help the less fortunate is still there and more!”
“[I have learned that] prayer is so important and not to rush ahead of the Lord.”
“[One highlight was] seeing the gospel alive and the body of Christ in action.”
“It [this trip] has solidified my faith more; I have grown in many ways—I feel like a mature Christian!”
“Since the first trip, my life has taken a new direction—one that continues as missions, at home and abroad.”
“[I have learned] the power of the Holy Spirit lies in unconditional love—the outpouring that God has for us overflows to others.”
“When we gave the clothes away it was such a good feeling to see the smiles and how proud they were to get something new.”
“I have heard a lot on how people die of hunger and stuff like that but to see it is a whole different matter.”
“There is no doubt I have definitely changed. I will appreciate what God has given me at home a lot more.”
“[I have learned] that God has blessed me so much so I should bless other people in return.”
“[One highlight was] the response of both the Pima people in Babicora and our Mexican hosts asking when we would be back—that’s huge progress in Babicora.”
“These trips continue to reinforce my commitment to the ministry to both help those in Mexico and at home.”
“I was once again impressed with how the Lord put together a balanced and appropriate team for this specific project.”
“[One highlight was] spending time with the children in Babicora and building relationships.”
“I think freezing in our tents every night reinforced the importance of making sure the people have adequate clothing, blankets and food.”
