I hope everyone will take some time to watch the slideshow posted under “photos” on our website, for they tell the story of our recent Kingdom-building trip to Cuba. As they say, “a picture is like a thousand words.” As always, our trip to Cuba was amazing as God worked in mighty ways IN us and THROUGH us. He put together the perfect team from 5 different churches to come alongside the church in Santiago de Cuba. Our assignment was to build the Kingdom both spiritually and physically. Our team members were able to minister in three different services with 700-1,800 in attendance in each service. We saw Cubans hungry for more of God, His Word, full of worship and praise…even in their very adverse circumstances! In our words, the trip was humbling, inspiring, convicting, and a blessing….all at the same time!
We asked our team members to share a brief testimony of the trip, and here are some of their responses:
"But to me the most important thing is that we as a team came together, traveled to Cuba and helped people that we did not know, and may never see again, because that is what the Lord lead each of us to do"
"Sharing your time, talents and treasures is a gift that only you can give, and I am thankful to have been a small part of it"
"He did bring me to Cuba to change me and to draw me nearer to HIM and HIS heartbeat. I never going to forget what I experienced in Cuba"
"When we got to Santiago I even got a burst of energy. I never felt tired and walked up and down some thousand plus stairs. I felt great and started to see things very differently. Even seeing the assignment that the LORD gave me as very fun."
"We plan, we meet, we raise funds to go and help our brother and sisters in Cuba, and as Americans it is easy to pat ourselves on the back and say look at what we have done. We did not go to Cuba we were brought to Cuba by God so that we could be changed"
