Venezuela was amazing. I had a really good time. It was hard at times because Kyle was supose to be going on the trip with us. Even in light of that, God did some amazing things. We left in the morning at 5:30 and got to our hotel in Ciudad Boulivar at 10:30pm. I was very suprised by how nice the hotel was. It was up on a hill overlooking the whole city. It even had a hammock in each room! Our first 2 days in the city we split into about 6 groups and went door knocking to invite people to a family Bible study and VBS we were having at the church we were helping. We also went to different places in the city during the week and sang. Each night we did a Bible study and VBS. (like I mentioned before) Those things are what we did every day while we were there..... It was cool to see how God was moving in the people of Venezuela. Especially the people that were already attending the church we were helping. Their faith was so real and active. There was a guy that went to the church that couldn't help but share his faith. Get this - he was driving into the city each weekend from a town 2 hours away. He would stay there and learn all that he could from Jimmy (preacher) and then go back and teach the people in his town! If that is not commitment to God and proclaiming Jesus, I don't know what is. Not only was that cool to see. It was cool to see God moving in each person's life that went on the trip with us. I tell you, I am still trying to process everything that was going on in this trip we took. It was by no means an ordinary mission trip, but God had us there for a reason and he showed up regardless. I am just thankfull that He gave me the opertunity to be apart of it.
