Commissioning!

I´ve just come back from Latin Link Guatemala´s first commissioning service! 
It´s been really special to celebrate and pray for 3 Guatemalan missionaries who are preparing to serve in the UK and in Ecuador.

 

Pamela, Emily, and Elisa have all answered God´s call on their lives, and have taken the scary step of using their skills, and interests and professions, to serve God in another country and culture. They´ve already overcome a number of obstacles to get this far, but are determined to continue on and discover more of what God has for them to do.


It was great to worship together and hear encouragement from the Bible. Moises Mejia, a member of the advisory group for Latin Link Guatemala, and lecturer in missions, preached from Isaiah 49.


It was a special time, when pastors, and families, and representatives from CONEM prayed together, to commission these 3 young women into their projects in different countries.
The first of them leaves tomorrow.
