Day Six, July 23rd Wake Up
Sunday is a day of rest here at the mission. There is no construction going on and no major projects. Two guys from our group preached today. Chris Robbins at the church in La-Point and Chris Heulat here in Saint-Louis du Nord. Chris Heulat preached from Revelation 3 where Jesus is speaking to the church at Sardis. Jesus states, “You have a reputation of being alive, but you are dead. Wake up!”
This trip has definitely awakened me. There is an incredible need in the world for Christ’s love to be shown through service. I do not want to go home after this trip and forget the needs of others. It is so easy to get caught up in every day life and forget to serve. I do not want to someday speak to Jesus and hear him say to me “Well you had a great reputation, but!

This is beyond true. So many get caught up in the everyday life and don't realize that there is a world of people who are suffering and so many who do not know Christ's love. It looks like you guys had an amazing trip and did many wonderful things. I know this is an older blog but it's great for others to see and to read. Continue to do what you are doing and above all.. Glorify the Lord.
Many Blessings,
Jessica
