Growing Empathy

If you’ve ever talked to someone who has just returned from a mission trip you’ve probably heard testimonies like these:

• “The poor villagers where we worked taught me so much about being a Christian and what it really means to live by faith.”

• “People were so open and friendly with us even though we didn’t speak their language.”

• “This trip really made me think about how much I have, and how little most people must live on. I’m going to have to rethink my spending habits.”

You might have heard that although the reason people give for going on short-term missions trips is to help others, most will tell you that in the end they received much more than they gave. If you want to get excited about God’s work, re-evaluate your priorities or look beyond your own backyard and build kingdom bridges, sign up for one of our mission trips today.
