We are called to GO.

Do you wonder what God’s will is for your family? It’s to fulfill His mission. We wonder where, what, when . . . and we often get bogged down in the unknown details. The way we accomplish this mission will look a million different ways.

Where are you going today? The grocery store. The school. The neighbor’s house. Wherever you go, fulfill your mission and shine Jesus. Your small step of obedience might lead you to great destinations or it might just lead you to the dog food aisle. Either way, going is half the victory. Because that is your family’s greatest mission.

“If it falls to your lot to be a street sweeper, sweep streets like Michelangelo painted pictures, sweep streets like Beethoven composed music . . . Sweep streets like Shakespeare wrote poetry. Sweep streets so well that all the host of heaven and earth will have to pause and say: Here lived a great street sweeper who swept his job well.” ~Martin Luther King Jr.

God isn’t waiting for us to be perfect or get our act together, so we can change the world; He specializes in using the less-than-perfect places in our lives for His glory.

It’s our mission if we choose to accept it.

Missions Update 

Our very own Desert Springs family member, Sherry Bernheisel is filled with JOY as she serves the LORD in La Mision, Mexico.  She is teaching the children about Jesus at Open Arms Childcare Ministry by telling bible stories and doing crafts with them, making cookies and planning special events.  

Sherry felt the call to move there last summer on our mission trip.  It took almost a year for all things to fall in place, but she never lost sight of her calling.  The Lord has provided for her every need and has filled her with a peace that passes all understanding.  

We are looking forward to being with Sherry on this years Mexico Mission Trip from June 14-19.  Please pray for Sherry each day and pray for our team as we travel and serve others, thank you!
