The EFCC mission team is already working on their fourth training session. It is surprising to realize how quickly time is rushing towards our departure. Excitement builds as we move forward!
The team is busy completing their pre-trip tasks of gathering gift donations for the dear Navajo women; purchasing craft materials; designing and purchasing table centerpieces; researching game ideas; decorating our team aprons; preparing worship music selections; and completing all the other hundreds of details that are necessary for this Navajo Mission.
In addition to the physical preparations for this mission, the team is also journaling about what God is teaching us through the process of serving on a short-term mission. We are learning about the Navajo culture. We are bonding into one supportive cohesive unit as we pray together; write and share our three-minute testimonies; and work together.
God has been evident in all aspects of our preparations! Spiritual warfare has been active, but God has intervened again and again. There was a surprise budget deficit that was quickly rectified through savings on airfare and generous donations. There have been physical attacks but healing has been swift and sure. It is always amazing and exciting to see our wondrous God at work! This mission is bound to be a great success if the amount of spiritual warfare is any indication.
Please pray that God will be glorified in everything we do; that He will guide all preparations and planning; and will keep us spiritually and physically strong.
