Your “Virtual” Mission From God – Sunday March 30
Dear RiverTown Family,
As you read this our first RiverTown “International” mission trip is underway! We touched down in the nation of Guatemala yesterday afternoon. Please be in prayer for Oscar & Casey Valencia, Jeff Allen, Connie Vogtlin, Holly Slay, Shelby Granberry, Maren Doernbrack, Hannah Rathel and her Dad (ME!). This team will all need your prayers this week as we intend to pave the way for a long term mission relationship with an unreached people group in a rural area in Guatemala near the Pacific Ocean called Canales! The local Guatemalan Pastor we will be supporting in that area is described as “A 75 Year Old Fireball.” We can’t wait to meet him!
We are already planning and preparing for additional trips as God leads. Every member of RiverTown will have the opportunity to go on a “life-changing mission journey” to extend the work we are beginning this week. Get ready, you’re next!
Until then, we have a gift for you from RiverTown! The definition of a VISION is to see something with your soul before you see it with your eyes!
This Sunday at RiverTown one of the best traveling missionaries I know, Rev. Royce Railey (www.gofishoutdoorministries.com), will share a message describing the transformation in a Christian’s life when he or she goes on a mission trip! Royce is a veteran mission traveler and has taken dozens of groups on life-changing mission journeys. This will be your “Virtual” mission trip and prepare you for your every-day mission here in our city and around the world.
Jesus himself traveled on a mission from Heaven, to Bethlehem, to The Cross, then to Conquer Death and Hell through his bodily Resurrection we Celebrate on Easter Sunday! Come home to RiverTown this Easter and experience the TRUE meaning of Christ’s Resurrection.
All for Jesus,
Pastor David Rathel
