Belize Travel Missions Trip: Day 7

We head for home today.

It was bittersweet to leave.

Even though we only had a short time in the morning before catching our plane back to the mainland, God still blessed those few short hours with more gospel conversations.

We headed back to Estels as a group this morning for breakfast.  A waitress who was there the day prior when just a few of us visited this place remembered us.  She had talked briefly with the teen who was with us the day before.  She saw that we had a few Bibles sitting on the table and asked if she could have one!  Continue reading “Belize Travel Missions Trip: Day 7”

Belize Travel Missions Trip: Day 5

Only 2 days left on this Island.  The time seems to have flown by and already I am sad knowing our time here is coming to an end soon.  Today we broke our larger group (of 14 at this point) into smaller groups to go into the community for breakfast.  We each went our own ways to engage the community and get into gospel conversations.  Our group, which was my husband myself and one of the  teen girls, headed off down the street where we met a guy at the bank who recommended two places for breakfast and even gave us a ride (golf cart style of course) to show us where they were.  We invited him to join us for breakfast (on us) but sadly he couldn’t.  We walked the area around Estels by the sea (which I highly recommend for breakfast especially if you are looking for a taste of home with bagels, pancakes, etc.) and talked to a few locals.  That’s where we met this guy…

Belize Travel Mission Trip: Day 4

My heart again feels a heaviness for the people here, the people who have no lasting hope.  As we were surrounded today by garbage I am looking to see.. where will these people find hope?  Not here, not in any earthly thing they may run to, to try to fill themselves.  I am reminded of the hymn  ” My hope is built on nothing less, than Jesus’ blood and righteousness; I dare not trust the sweetest frame, but wholly lean on Jesus’ name.  On Christ, the solid Rock I stand, all other ground is sinking sand; all other ground is sinking sand.”  How fitting this song is.

This morning we started our day by attending a Sunday school program for local kids.  Chief is the one who runs this program.  There are other ministry events he holds here as well but Sunday mornings are for the kids.  Continue reading “Belize Travel Mission Trip: Day 4”
