WASSSHAPPENINN?? WASSSSUPP?! WASSSUUUUPPP!!!
My beautiful people!! I am super excited to introduce to you all my new series, A Moment of Ministry with RC! (click clink to view video)
I love writing, but I also love being in front of the camera! I believe it it is a little bit more intimate than writing due to my viewers being able to really see and feel my emotions and the atmosphere that I am in! I thought it would be a great idea to do a moment of ministry each country we go to so that you all can see with your own eyes exactly what we are doing for ministry!
This month we were serving at a disabled community for adults! At first it was very difficult to witness what some of the residents go through on the daily (severe bed sores, not being able to walk/talk, seizures, etc.). But during prayer one morning, I was asking God how are we supposed to share the Gospel with them? And I wasn’t even talking about the language barrier, but more so their inability to communicate and their lack of cognitive awareness. I heard a soft sweet voice say, “show them the Gospel. I never said the only way to share the Gospel is to speak it. BE IT.” Shoooot! I didn’t question that voice! I know what I heard, and I obeyed it! From that moment on I literally loved every person within that community with all of my heart. After this change, we all started to see change within them!! The ones that were grumpy and never smiled, started to smile and interact with us! It was straight love!!
There is one gentleman in particular in our home named Silverio who isn’t able to speak or walk (he crawls by using his arms). He is always in the front room by the door so he is the first one we see when we walk in the home. God told me to kiss him on the head every single day when I greet and depart from him. I am not even sure if Silverio knows what I am doing but I trust God that He knows what He is doing through me. Through this simple act, my love for Silverio has grown despite not being able to communicate with him.
I came into this ministry doubting the goodness of God, but through seeking Him more on the daily, I am leaving being able to see the beauty and love in every soul He has created!!
I am sad to leave, but this is not goodbye. It is see ya later IN HEAVEN!!
We only have four more days until we depart for El Salvador! Thank you all for your support and prayers!
Prayer requests:
*For unity within my team so that we can do God’s business.
*That I go DEEEEP in God. So deep that I get LOST in Him.
*Self-control and discipline of my mind.
*For the residents of the disabled community to feel and be loved after we leave.
*For my family, friends, and YOU to go deeper in God. The Man is limitless. We can never get enough of Him!! Doesn’t that make you get the excited butterflies just thinking about that?!?
Much Love,
RC
