G-Comm LA



Well they saw and they conquered. The Grace Community Church team has left to return to the states. It is bitter sweet seeing them leave. I have learned a lot from them. God has used them to show me how I need to be serving better, and how I can change in that area. Not only looking out for my own self but actually looking for opportunities to serve others. I laughed a lot with this team and it is sad to see them go. But I know that Dr. Tatlock should be happy, because now I can actually get some work done for school .
Like I have said before in the previous blog: I have learned that I need not to be dependent on other people, but on the other hand I have learned that relationships with people are so important. If it were not for people this work that I am doing means nothing. I need to be investing my life into people with a servant’s heart. I need to have a heart that is serving others because I know that I am serving God in doing so.
The team was so much fun, and we got a lot done on the roof of the AIDS hospice. We played a lot of catch phrase after dinner. We made new friends. We looked forward to the word from the Lord for the day (“We’ll sleep when we’re dead” “SOS: Service Over Self” “Good things come to those who wait” “Get rid of it” etc.) We played with the kids. We ate wild meats. We went on a safari. We had a good time.
I hope I was as much of an encouragement to them as they were to me.
