Taking Off

Written by Chris


We're writing this from SeaTac as James, Ethan, and I prepare to head out to Sweden. Praise God that Raymond, Bonnie, and Pastor Bin all made it safely earlier this week! We're looking forward to all that God has in store for the camp and our team this week and ready to be used by Him.


Here are our prayers requests (stolen from Ethan's email) as we take off:
  • Sensitivity to the Spirit: pray that we would be attuned to where God is leading us, and obey in that regard. Pray that as we interact with others, we will listen humbly and follow the Holy Spirit to support them meaningfully.
  • Camp attendees and serving team: pray that all who attend, especially those who are hearing the Gospel for the first time, would come to know Jesus more fully. Pray for small group leaders to work well together and engage effectively. Pray that the organizing team and worship/PA teams would have wisdom, unity, and peace.
  • Travel: pray that our journey goes smoothly.  The next update will be from Sweden!
  • Illness: a couple team members are sick. Pray that the Lord heals them, gives them presence of mind, and watches over the rest of us.

This was 4 and a half hours before our first scheduled activity of the day breakfast. After falling back asleep in the very early full sunlight, we headed out for breakfast and had bread with various meats, cheeses and vegetables.   Coming into our first full day, we started out with a devotion focused on Psalm 78: 4 - 7 and Deuteronomy 6: 5 - 9; to love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your might, and to tell the next generation this and God's glorious deeds. Morning devotionals Our first leaders' session with Pastor Joe from the Lord's Grace Christian Church was on sharing the Gospel in relationship. He reminded us that the Gospel is the most important thing, and that we need to get b...
