Focus Topic: A Willing Heart
Focus Scripture: Colossians 3:23 / 2 Timothy 2:10
Focus Team Members: Dawn Difelice, Nicole Difelice, & Zack Harting
The apostle, Paul, writes the young pastor, Timothy that he is willing to do anything if it will bring salvation to people. As our team prepares for their upcoming week of ministry, they will be trained to do many things that won’t be comfortable or natural to them. The question is: will they do it willingly? It’s hard being away from the norms of home. It’s harder still to serve when you are tired and hot. Instead of inconvenience and frustration, may our team experience an overwhelming sense of Your love, making them ready & willing to serve!
Lord, I pray for our team members right now - especially, Dawn, Nicole & Zack. Each person has already demonstrated a willing heart - just in going to El Salvador. Yet, that willingness to serve will be tested as the week goes on. As they serve may they remember that people will come to salvation in Christ; may they keep in mind that they are not just serving others - they are serving You; working for You. I know that you are able to help them. And, as they willingly give of themselves for the sake of others, draw them closer to You. In Jesus’ Name, I pray!

You are all in my heart and prayers this morning! I know that the Lord is with you in all that you say and do. Can't wait to hear all the stories. Much love to you all!
Dawn, Nicole and Zack--Thanks for your willingness to serve.
I keep thinking of all of you. Today's sermon talked of obedience and I can't think of a better example of obedience than leaving the comforts of your home, traveling to a foreign country and showering God's love on people you don't even know. I'm so proud of each of you (especially you teens!), and will be praying for each of you this week.
I look forward to hearing the testimonies when you return. We are praying for you, may you impact many lives in El Salvador. ~ Blessings~
We are ALL PRAYING!!
We're SO EXCITED to see what The Lord will do through you!
