Repairs to Missionary Home in Haiti

Obedience to Christ's Parting Words
The lack of success, abilities, or circumstances does not negate obedience to Christ's parting words (Matthew 28:18-20) . . .
The Gift of Faith
Following the nightly Chapel services, teams of Chapel workers stroll the boardwalk, striking up conversations with strangers about Christianity. The first few times you do this, every doubt you’ve ever had about the Christian faith is drawn to the forefront of your mind . . .
Shining the Light of the Gospel
We came to the university to serve in the English Conversation Office, where we each taught one or two classes. While teaching was our task, we were also dedicated to shining the light of the Gospel into the darkness our students lived in, through relationship-building, prayer, and welcoming students into our lives . . .
The Spark of Life I Had Been Waiting For

Swept Off My Feet By The Lord’s Grace
Being a member of Team Uganda 2015 was an experience that changed my life. Actually, it didn’t just change my life. It changed me. Short-term mission trips do that to people. We go in thinking that we have all of this knowledge and wisdom to share, but in the end, we are the ones who learn so much . . .
Our Goal Was To Show God's Love
Our goal was to show God's love through this camp, but only Christ's love and grace can open the hearts of these children to truly know him . . .

A Certain Peace
Much relies on the maturity and initiative of the team members, many of whom have served year after year and have grown both in their commitment to missions and their love for the children they meet . . .
A Zeal That Can Only Be Inspired by the Spirit
No other week has given me greater proof that God is active in His relationship with me. I came to the Chapel looking to be revitalized with a stronger passion for Christ, and the Spirit answered my prayers far beyond what I could have ever expected . . .
Seed Planters
We were there to plant seeds. We weren’t the gardener, just the planters. Our job was to plant the Word of God in every way we could, whether by lessons, songs, or actions . . .
Wrap-Up Report from Camp Coordinator
God answered our prayers and we had three successful camps. Please continue to pray for the kids that we taught. We may not be seeing the fruit of our labors right away, but we hope and pray that God uses the seeds we have sown to bring these people to Him . . .
Key West Evangelism Training: Leaders' Reports
We are very thankful that you took the time each day to talk in depth with us as a group. Your explanation of why we witness and evangelize was refreshing. You showed us how to use God’s authority for reaching people with truth and love . . .
Teen Testimonials
I found it very interesting seeing how all those different people on the pier reacted to God's word. In our sometimes protected world we never see the effects of God’s word on unbelievers, and seeing the wide variety of responses people had was very eye-opening . . .
Proclaiming the Only Hope and Light
I recently returned from a week in Quebec City where we ran the English for Kids camp for children ages 5-12. And what a whirlwind of a week it was . . .
