Guatemala Missions Recap "Our trip to Guatemala w Guatemala Missions Recap "Our trip to Guatemala was an incredible experience. We got to see firsthand experience how God moves and works in Guatemala. Guatemala is a country where a lot of people live in poverty. The majority of the people in the country live a very poor lifestyle due to the hardships in the country. The city where our team lived for one month is called Zacapa. Zacapa has a population of about 60,000 people. The city has huge amounts of Drug cartels and trafficking going on. A majority of the families who live in this city strive every day to have a meal on their plates they strive to live and provide for their loved ones. Our team's ministry was mainly focused on 3 different types of ministry. Mountain ministry work, Kids ministry, and Local dump ministry. Mountain ministry was the ministry that we got to be involved with a lot. Our team had the opportunity to travel deep into the Guatemala mountains, these mountains are filled with different villages and different types of people. Many villages are filled with families who either know Christ or don't no Christ. The families rely on the mountains for their daily needs such as food, housing, supplies, and much more. Our team visited villages that already had a local church built into their village by the ministry we worked with. We go to visit the churches and see how God works in their churches. We got to be with families who have received Christ into their lives. Something God showed are team is how much he loves the people who live in the villages. God would work supernatural miracles in the villages to bring people to Christ. Overall we go to see how God's spirit moved in the country. Our team is super thankful for everything the Lord has shown us."

Colombia Missions Update🇨🇴 "Our mission tr Colombia Missions Update🇨🇴 "Our mission trip in Colombia is coming to an end. During this past month, we have been serving at the City of Refuge Foundation in many ways. One thing that we do every Wednesday evening is we minister at ‘Hell Street’. This is a 2 block radius, which is filled with about a thousand people openly doing and selling drugs, including children. These streets aren’t governed by the police. It is cheaper to buy cocaine than bread. We give out bread and water as well as go into the streets. We talk to people, evangelize and pray for them and also invite them to the foundation for rehab. During the course of these few weeks, due to the ministry at the Bronx (Hell street), there have been multiple men that came to the foundation for rehab. Another thing that has impacted the community is something called ‘inquelenatos’ which is a Venezuelan housing composed of daily payments. Some of these people experience challenges to the housing situations; if they do not pay their daily rent they get kicked out of their homes or sold into trafficking. We go to these homes, minister to them, show them love, and invite them to church. Some other areas we have served in is youth service, children’s ministry, working in the bakery, elderly home, working with men and women in the program and English classes. As well as work projects in partnership with local businesses; packaging spices. The community has welcomed us with open arms, and we could not be more grateful for their hospitality and opportunities to serve the Lord."
Zambia Missions Update "Our time here in the beau Zambia Missions Update "Our time here in the beautiful country of Zambia has been incredible. We’ve seen and experienced the presence of God on a much deeper level. During our expedition in the bush, we spent our days ministering to surrounding villages in the area. We surrendered our hearts to the Holy Spirit so He could move and speak through us to the people of Chikuwe. We saw God work in mighty ways, many people received Jesus as their personal Lord and Savior. We saw chains broken off of people who were in bondage for years, and the light restored back into their eyes. Many received healing, we saw people who had trouble walking throw their canes away and run in joy of the Lord. Many people turn to witchcraft in difficult situations and/or for healing, thinking it’s a way out of their hardships. This past month we’ve seen Jesus encounter them so mightily. We have watched them burn up their charms, renounce witchcraft, have uncontainable joy to share their testimonies, and motivate surrounding people to understand the true meaning of life, JESUS. The remainder of our trip has been spent in the city of Chipata staying with the Gorlachev family. We are so honored to be welcomed into their home and to be entrusted with being a part of their ministry. They have done an amazing job teaching and showing us what it truly means to live everyday for the glory of God, and what full time mission life looks like. We’ve seen the work the Holy Spirit has started, and believe it will continue not only in Chikuwe and Mafuta, but to all nations. We are all so grateful for this opportunity to serve here in Zambia, and we thank everyone who has kept us in their prayers."

South Dakota Missions Update: It has been 3 weeks South Dakota Missions Update: It has been 3 weeks since our SMBS team has started ministry at the Pine Ridge Reservation. They are working with a local Ministry “Wings as Eagles” which has been there for many years. The team is mostly serving children and teenagers, sharing the Gospel, putting together Kid’s Clubs, and encouraging them to live their life for Christ. They emphasize that God created each person with a purpose and a lot of talents. There are many challenges to working with Native American children, but they start off with just being their friends and loving on them. There were a couple of teen girls who gave their lives to Jesus. It was Amazing! The team also goes out every Wednesday and do a cookout in the community where they just talk to people and pray for them. Please continue to pray for the ministries at Pine Ridge Reservation, for the Lord to continue touching and transforming this community!
TBS 22 has officially started! We’re so excited TBS 22 has officially started! We’re so excited for these next four weeks with our 112 teens!
Poland Update 🇵🇱 Our time here in Poland h Poland Update 🇵🇱 Our time here in Poland has been quite incredible. We have done 2 camps for the refugee kids here in the town of Rzeszów and have also been able to put on a festival for a church that is hosting refugees in Lublin. At our first camp, we did not know what or how many kids to expect but it was worth putting it on even for one child. It's amazing to see how bringing the light of Jesus to kids who escaped war fills their hearts with joy, peace and love. The children were very closed off on the first day, but as the days continued they started opening up about where they came from and what they had experienced. It was a blessing to be able to pray with most of these children for the first time. We were also very thankful to be able to talk to the mothers of these children and bring them the hope of Jesus as well by sharing the Gospel message with them. During our second camp, the experiences were similar, we got really attached to the kids and the goodbyes were the hardest. God is moving in Poland and in the hearts of these refugees and we are so blessed to see that. Not only are their lives being changed, but our lives as well. We are so excited to continue on with more camps and as well as continue to work with the Ukrainian refugees not only in this city but the surrounding cities as well. We ask that you lift us up in your prayers as this work is physically, emotionally, and mentally not easy. The war is real. This trauma is real. Jesus is the only one who can truly comfort every heart that has been through this disaster and we are thankful that we get the opportunity to be used as His vessels.

UGANDA 🇺🇬 Update Our time here in Uganda h UGANDA 🇺🇬 Update Our time here in Uganda has been absolutely incredible. God has been moving through our team and we have been able to see God's hand and love over the people of Uganda. We have prayed over the sick and the oppressed, and witnessed a women receive deliverance. We also got the opportunity to train the local church on evangelism and go door to door evangelizing where 22 people gave their lives to the Lord. In kids ministry, we always have over 200 kids. We are able to serve at different schools for a few days every week. During this time, we are able to teach a lesson, perform skits, worship, play games and just pour out our love onto them. On Sundays, our team teaches at a Bible study with the elders of the church and community members. We have been teaching on the attributes of God are able to really dive deep with the people that attend. We also do prison ministry on Sundays, where we are able to share a sermon and testimonies. There have been 12 people that have given their lives to Christ at the prison! Last week, we went camping on a remote island so that we can share the gospel. Most of the people who live on the island are not saved. During our time there, we were able to preach at the church, teach and equip the locals on evangelism and go door to door evangelizing. 12 people got saved on the island and 8 of them got baptized!
Honduras Update 🇭🇳 “So far we have done s Honduras Update 🇭🇳 “So far we have done several kids programs where we shared Bible stories, played games, fed, sang worship with dance moves. We also went door to door to gather people for church service where we got to share testimonies plus share the gospel message with a sermon. One of the ladies in the village received freedom and deliverance. Praise God! We serve at a school a couple times a week sharing bible lessons with deaf students. We also get to do Bible studies with deaf adults on Sunday’s. The kids that we serve just need LOVE. That’s the greatest part about this.”
