The night before I enter the Mission Field

It's Wednesday night and I am preparing my heart and mind for a 91 day mission trip in Williamsburg, VA.  The overall goal is to show Jesus to the people of Williamsburg. 

Sharing the gospel of Jesus will always be in Season.  It  never goes out of season.  On this night I am reminded that Jesus commanded us all in Matthew 28:19-20 "Go ye therefore..."  There's no qualifier to the word go.  Jesus never said, think about it a little, or pray about going, or talk to 10 different friends and gather their opinion before going....He simply said, "Go.." 

Over the next 91 days there will be 91 different people exposed to God's love through Random acts of kindness, mission work, and words of encouragement.  It's my sincerest prayer that the Holy Spirit of God go before me and prepare the way.

Tomorrow will be the toughest day as it would've been mom's 91st birthday.  I will rise early and head out to the mission field!  I will take some pictures but not many...NONE will be of me.  This isn't about me...this is about GOD and sharing Him with 91 other people!

God bless you!  your prayers are appreciated!

Mission field bound,

On July 12, 2012 I will embark on a 91 day mission trip in my very own modern day Jerusalem, Williamsburg, VA.  Why 91 days?!!! Well my mom's birthday was July 12 and she would've been 91 this year.  However, she passed away on February 20, 2012.

My goal is to share Jesus with the people of Williamsburg by performing 91 Random Acts of Kindness as well as doing some mission projects.  I am excited to see what God will do!  He's a Big God and He can do GOD-SIZED things!  I EXPECT HIM to do God-sized things!

What will people do?  What will they say?  How will they respond?  Only time will tell.  I"m going to do my part and simply be obedient.  I will be working my full time job during this 91 day mission trip.  So, when I'm not working, being a wife, or doing my other responsibilities, I will be out hitting the streets of Williamsburg sharing Jesus out there!

I could use your prayers.  Please pray for the 91 people who will receive the acts of kindness.  Pray for their souls!

God bless you....
