We have stayed in a total of 5 different towns; slept on beds, floors, couches, vans, and tables; visited countless other towns; gone to 6 different college campuses; served with 6 ministries & churches; had to bathe the entire team in lice shampoo, procurred some minor injuries and ailments, got lost several times; met tons of amazing people and really saw God's love and movement here in Utah.
We are now preparing to wind down the trip and head back home to California while surely leaving some part of ourselves here in Utah. This morning we are worshiping with Grace Bible Church in Springville and then loading up into our van train to drive about 4-5 hours south the St. George. There we will be doing our last campus visit to Dixie State College and will then spend the rest of our time reflecting and debriefing as a team.
I cannot say thank you enough for all of the support and prayer, our trip to Utah would have been completely different without it!
I'd like to share a passage that we've really been coming back to during our time. I encourage you to read the whole thing, I will just share a part.
Romans 10:1-15
"Brothers, my heart's desire and prayer to God for them is that they may be saved. For I bear them witness that they have a zeal for God, but not according to knowledge. For being ignorant of the righteousness of God, and seeking to establish their own, they did not submit to God's righteousness. For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes."
It goes on to talk about the need for Christ followers to go out and speak the truth to those living in darkness. This was our call to Utah and it has been so encourraging to see God flowing through us!
It's about time for church to begin and then our long drive, but more updates on what we have been doing to come!
