24-7 Summer Missions: The Time is Now!
Published: February 27th, 2006
STILL WAITING FOR THE GREEN LIGHT?
So here’s the news many of you have been waiting for! Its pray, play and obey time – its 24-7 mission teams 2006...
It's another exciting menu of teams opportunities with excellent training, a Transmission day and teams fanning out all over the place. Hundreds of people from many nations have taken persistent prayer and servant evangelism to some of the least reached high place of youth culture over the last 5 years. Here’s why we do it.
Mobilize means move
Take a look through the gospels and Acts. Note how many times words like ‘leave, go and send’ are used. Jesus never calls us to be static – he is calling His people to be mobile and find the places He is calling them to be. There are no unreached places - whether its New Belgrade, San Antonio, Luton or Macedonia – God is already there doing amazing things. However unless we move when God calls us nothing will be established – Jesus commands us to go.
There are things you will never discover about God, His world and who you are by staying where you are...24-7 Mission teams get you on the move!
Pray, play and obey
We go in teams to work alongside some great groups of people who are building gospel communities in some of the most neglected parts of the world. The harvest is there but they don’t have many co-workers.
Its quite simple – we pray persistently and obey what Jesus asks us to do in serving people where we are. We also celebrate what God is already doing, have fun and enjoy the privilege of being in very special places:
