Sanni Bunanni from Swaziland!!

  Life in Africa is amazing. I’ve seen and experienced so many new things. More importantly, God has taught me so much. Ministry has been great. Most of our time in ministry has been helping in a preschool and really just pouring into the kids at Ntabas Care Point. We’ve also done some things I wasn’t expecting to do in Swazi. We were able to go on a home visit one day to a little old lady in the community. I was expecting to spend time with her and share the gospel, but we ended up moving ant infested wood to a fire pit and sweeping the ground with branches (yes,...

Spiritual Warfare

greetings from San Pedro, Guatemala! our trip this far has been an adventure, and I’m so blessed to be able to be on this beautiful adventure with my best friends. these past two days have been tough on our team as a whole as we had to send home one of our own last night due to worsening allergic reactions. as a team, we spent hours last night in tears and prayer. though we hate to see her leave our group, we hated even more to see her suffering.  today was a test of faith as well and many of us were not feeling well. it could have been something we ate or simply nerves, but...

The Gift of Love

“We love because he first loved us.” 1 John? ?4?:?19? NIV It was our first day of going out to serve in the care points and my heart was full of excitement and expectancy for what the Lord was planning to do. I had no idea what to expect and I loved that! All I knew was God was going to work, and he did. The minute we arrived at the carepoint we were immediately welcomed by adorable children with loving arms. These bright eyed kids were enamored with the fact that these white people had come to love on them. The minute we stepped off the bus every child in sight ran and jumped...

One Love – One Heart

“If I could speak all the languages of earth and angels, but didn’t love others, I would only be a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. If I had the gift of prophecy, and if I understood all of God’s secret plans and possessed all knowledge, and if I had such faith that I could move mountains, but did not love others, I would be nothing. If I gave everything I have to the poor and even sacrificed my body, I could boast about it; but if I didn’t love others, I would have gained nothing.” -1 Corinthians 13:1-3 My name is Sara Cox and I am 17 years old. I have been in...

Holy Spirit, You are welcome here

Not only is the title of this blog my favorite worship song, but it sums up my entire experience so far. These people are so willing to let God into their hearts that you can feel Him wherever you go. When people say that God moves in mysterious ways, they know what they are talking about. God has made a serious change in my heart, and I didn’t even see it coming. During this entire trip, I’ve been spiritually stretched, more than I’ve ever been before and I’m loving it. The graciousness and love from the hearts of these people has touched me tremendously. Some of...

Going Out of Your Comfort Zone for God

For many people their “comfort zone” is being on their phones, driving anywhere any time, having electricity, wifi available anywhere, being able to wear a new outfit every day, a bed to sleep on, more than one room in the house, air conditioning.. The list goes on and on.. For these 2 weeks we’ve decided to go out of our “comfort zone” and take away those things. We took a step into a new country.. A new WORLD even.. And those things were instantly taken away. For people here.. Their “comfort zone” is being with family, having a roof over their...
