September Mission Trip

Life Connections International brought over a team of five people from Texas and California to serve alongside of Alva Baptist Church for a week.

This 'scouting' mission was classic MO for God working through LCI. We stepped out to invite them and they agreed to pray about the visit. And God brought together the perfect team! He tipped His hand to us about the massive work that we may see in Scotland over the next few years, God willing.

The Fraser house was swarming with activity as 10 people from (ehem) 40 to 4 mos came and went from day-to-day and adventure-to-adventure.

We saw lots of opportunity to pray with different groups of people and encourage them about the ongoing work.

Several people who visited are gifted evangelists and they helped to start relationships that are still growing now that they have returned home.

I think the Scots inspire Americans as much as Americans encourage Scots. And its not just dopey Braveheart-smitten Americans or Holywood worshiping Scots; we saw citizens of heaven recognizing the body of Christ and calling outside the walls of the church buildings to candidates for salvation!

There is so much happening in Alva, Clackmannan, Central Scotland...and beyond.

Prayer, feeding, evangelizing, encouraging, learning, growing, serving, sharing... we had it all!
