Dwayne started our meeting with a meaningful devotion on serving the Lord and building relationships with others. Can you imagine serving Jesus as an educator /administrator for 30 years! Dwayne has touched many lives and I’m sure that many of the students he has come in contact with know that they are better because of him. What a way to serve Jesus!
Our team wants to build relationships with people in Thailand. We want to introduce them to Jesus and make a difference in their lives. We started training for our Thailand mission today. We looked at Matthew 6:6 But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you. Pastor encouraged us to start daily devotions, if we weren’t already doing that. We were also encouraged to start journaling, either daily or weekly, to start recording happenings and God sightings in our lives.
We talked at length about being proper guests in Thailand: about being gracious, humble and thankful to our hosts. We also learned that it’s important on any mission trip to be flexible. You never know what will happen with international travel and we really want to set a good example for anyone with which we come in contact.
We are thankful for this opportunity. Now team – Go journal!
