Many of you signed up this past weekend for more information about future missions trips.  Very cool.  We will give you more details soon, but for now I want you to know that our first team will likely be sent to Brazil (one of our focus countries) by the end of March.  You will be able to sign up for the trip starting this weekend.   We will also send teams to Trinidad and Exuma in the near future.

We are excited to welcome Pastors Julio and Lucy Guzmán of Living Hope Church as our guest speakers this weekend.  We have already been partnering with them in their work in Trenton (our “Judea”).  But when you hear their heart for the people of their city, I know you will agree that we can help them even more in 2009.

I hope you enjoy the long weekend.  Just as we will spend time with our family and friends this week, it is my hope that the homeless we will be serving on Thursday would also become our family and friends.

Have a blessed Thanksgiving.  See you later in the weekend.
