Have you ever wondered what exactly happens on a mission trip? Does it really make a difference? This video was made by St. Bonaventure Indian Mission in New Mexico where our mission team has been working for the past TWENTY years! Some of the folks in this video are doing very skilled labor, but the mission trips offer lots of opportunity for people with simple skills as well, painting, cleaning up, etc. The work that we accomplish is so important and truly does touch people's lives as you will hear from Terry, but even more important is the relationships that we build and nourish each year. It is hard to imagine that someone you don't know, from a city far away, that you likely have never visited, would care enough abbot YOU to come and change your world.
Our St. Barnabas Missionary Prayer says:
Lord, may this be just a beginning
Of a relationship that grows in riches
As we come together as one family
To build your kingdom here on earth.
