Missions Information
June 26 - July 10
Location: St. Louis, MO (WLS) &
Hard Rock, AZ (Navajo Reservation)
Organization: FCBC
Myself and 6 other collegians (and 1 adult) will be attending the Warrior Leadership Summit (WLS) in Missouri for a week with other collegians to learn more about the Navajo and how to facilitate small groups effectively using this information. The following week, we will be flying to the Navajo Reservation to meet with the High School Missionary Team (HSMT) where we will host a vacation bible school. With these two weeks, we seek to both spread God’s name throughout the Navajo reservation and raise leaders within their community that will guide them when we are gone.
I’ve never done missions on this scale before. Honestly, I’m a little intimidated. Please support me by praying that
- God would increase my faith in His provision and guidance.
- God would give HSMT foresight in lesson and small group planning.
- God would soften the hearts of the Navajo to allow them to see the truth in the gospel.
- God would be with the leaders of HSMT in their decision making and navigation through unforeseen obstacles.
- God would bless me with sensitivity to their culture and discernment on which aspects are holy or not holy.
- God would turn the Navajo into a God-fearing people!
