Those are the best words to hear when a team comes back from a mission trip. Sending disciples out to impact the world means you pray and hope for fruit that comes from their efforts.

However, on this trip, it might not be what you're expecting. The four people who make a decision to follow Christ were team members. They were people on the team from CCV who were sent out. Sometimes people sign up for a mission trip knowing they are supposed to go, knowing there's a purpose in it, knowing that it's a good thing to give of yourself to serve others. They don't always know the change and transformation that will occur in THEM as a result of that going. 

When you go on a mission trip, you're taking yourself out of your normal routine, out of your comfort zone, and you're placing yourself in a vulnerable position where you have to exhibit faith, sacrifice, patience, flexibility...and most important, you become a very good listener. You rely on your leaders and your teammates in a way that challenges your self-sufficiency. What a perfect place to be for God to speak to you. When you're way from the noise of every day life. 

Jarrell, Khloe, Malachi, and Angie, we are proud of you and excited to see how God continues to reveal himself to you in the months and years to come.
