It is Sunday afternoon, August 3 and we are back in Houston. If you happen to see some people who look a little tired and are saying things like "spasiba" (thank you) and are rambling on about some really precious children - then it is probably someone from our team. Through everything that happened during our trip, we are certain of one thing - God has plans that are way bigger and better than we could ever imagine! Even though we may not why things worked the way they did, we were so blessed to be His vessels and instruments of love and to be able to meet so many of His precious creations that He has not forgotten.
In the days ahead, we fully intend to add more posts to this blog giving you pictures and insight into each day of our trip. (We weren't able to do this throughout the week because we didn't have internet connection and our communication with our friends back home was limited.) So, stay tuned for some amazing stories and be praying about how God might have you involved in this ministry to orphans in Russia.

A view into what God is doing through the people of Grand Parkway Church as we follow His commands to pray, send and go.
Missions, at the core of its definition, is a sending out of people with authority to share the amazing news of Jesus Christ.
When you look at it that way, it's what we're all called to do as Christians. In Jesus' famous words at the end of the Gospel of Matthew, he says to His followers that as they are going into the world, He wants them to make disciples of people in all nations and to baptize them and teach them to follow Jesus. We do that as we shop or exercise or work as teachers or doctors or accountants. There are also times that we should step out of our routine and go to one of those nations, especially those where there are many people who have yet to hear the name "Jesus."
At Grand Parkway, we believe that missions is not an option.
We also believe that God has led us to some incredible opportunities to go to our city and to our world and use the gifts and talents He's given in order to live out the passionate plan Jesus has for making sure the nations hear of His name and truth.
