We have been attending Steinbach Bible College for the past 8 months where we've had some amazing experiences. Now as the school year is coming to a close and we reflect on our time at SBC this past year, we're realizing it has been a year full of learning about God and we've experienced a strengthening of our faith. The learning that has taken place in the classroom has caused the words of the Bible to jump off the page and literally become as the scripture says, alive! The experiences in this community will stay with us for a long time. It was in this community that this dream to drive through Texas to Belize was first hatched.
We, as a group, are excited to reveal a 7000 mile road trip crossing three countries during the first two weeks of May. The twelve of us from Steinbach Bible College have chosen to participate in this drive to inspire. The vision of this trip is to travel to several communities in order to encourage and inspire brothers and sisters that we come into contact with. We have been preparing songs, skits, and testimonies of God's work in our own lives. So we are excited to tell the stories of some of the things that God has been doing in us. We are also excited to hear how God is moving in the communities we are visiting. We know that God's faithfulness has been evident to many people in many different parts of the world, it is our desire to learn as much as possible from those that we meet.
The plan is to leave Steinbach, MB, Canada on April 28th. We'll drive straight south to our first destination, Seminole, Texas. We are eager to be connecting with the Seminole MEC and participating in some volunteer work. After a few days we'll continue driving south through Mexico to the country of Belize. In Belize we plan on sharing in King's College (High School) while also connecting with several different churches in hopes that we can encourage the youth. Then we will retrace our steps and aim to arrive back in Canada on May 13th.
We need your help. We know that we can't do this trip alone. We're looking for people who will commit to pray for us. We would love if you would lift up your prayer to God in the following:
- Please pray that God will keep us safe as we travel and cross international borders.
- Pray, that each person may grow spiritually as an individual as well as for the group as a whole
We can't wait to see what God has in store for us on this trip. The anticipation is great as we think about the potential a trip like this has.
May God Bless You In All That You Do!!
