Missions Update šŸ‘‡šŸ¼ In the fall of 2022, Pak Missions Update šŸ‘‡šŸ¼

In the fall of 2022, Pakistan was hit with a life-changing catastrophe for many. Record breaking floods left 1/3 of the entire country under water, and 13 million people without homes. A team of 4 IDT students answered this need and went to help with humanitarian aid projects. They spent the end of 2022 helping families affected by the flood with medical clinics, feeding programs, Christmas programs for children, and of course sharing the love of Jesus! Thank you to everyone who supported this cause and partnered with Pakistan Missions!

TBS Week Three Recap TBS Week Three Recap
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 UpdatešŸ‡ØšŸ‡“ "Our mission tr Colombia Missions UpdatešŸ‡ØšŸ‡“ 

"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 ā€˜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 ā€˜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."
