That’s a Wrap!
Coming to the end of a dream fulfilled, I am not ready for it to end. Yet, as Eccl. 3:1 says, There is a season and a time for everything. God granted many blessings on this trip from making new friends, and praising God through music to seeing historical sights and morning devotions in the quiet of His creation…
A Pisa Our Hearts
Today was day 14 on our missions trip. We left the town we were staying in and headed to Pisa. I have loved Italy, and Pisa was absolutely fantastic…
The Final Concert
Today was our last concert for the mission trip which took the place of the Sunday morning message. It was such a blessing to be a part of the service. One of the cool things about Christian brotherhood is that when you try to be a blessing to others, you end up being blessed back, and I certainly felt that today…
O Sole Mío
A highlight for today was the time we spent singing and playing music at the piano in the airport. We spent most of the day traveling and had a couple of hours just waiting in the airport. So, when we saw the piano we played for hours…
Audience of One
The cultural differences and language barriers do not pose any challenge when it comes to sharing our love for God through music. God has been so faithful when it comes to connecting us with the people. The days have been hard with the small amount of sleep, but God has given all of us energy to minister to people…
When In Rome
Greetings from Rome, Italy! 🇮🇹 Today we had the privilege of touring around Rome, a beautiful city filled with culture, history, and amazing architecture. First, we got to see the magnitude of the colosseum and the surrounding arches and hills…
They of Italy Salute You
Today was a day of traveling. We left at 6 a.m. for the airport in Barcelona, Spain to fly to Rome, Italy. From there, we travelled to Terni by bus…
Eyes Up and Locked In
Today was very full of exploring and eating lots of good food! I especially enjoyed going to a buffet for lunch. I got to make own pizza with Sarah S. and it was so good! I also really enjoyed going and exploring on the beach and getting to collect rocks to take home to my family…
Encore! Encore!
This morning began with a group of us sharing our personal testimonies about how the Lord brought us here on this missions trip. They were testimonies of submitting to the Lord and not their own wills…
Mountain Moving Faith
The group had an opportunity to do special music at a local church today. I had a chance to preach on The Faith of a Christian…
Relax, Rehearse, Recital, Repeat
Today was a day to remember! Yesterday we visited some local markets in Spain and bought water balloons to help us cool off. Today, we decided to use them and played a fun game of Battleship with water balloons…
Twice the Teams, Twice the Adventure
Today has been an unexpected day of twists and turns, sometimes very literally. We did not perform our concert perfectly, and some may say it was our hardest day so far…
Castles and Concerts
Today was an eventful day to say the least. God blessed in ways we couldn’t have expected. We began by visiting the Castillo de Loarre (Castle of Loarre), a large, beautiful castle on the top of a mountain overlooking several villages in Spain…
Street Singing and Classical Concerts
Today, we were able to sing and evangelize to the people of St. Gaudens. We began with breakfast at the local church, where we were able to try a real French croissant! After, we went out to the city a couple streets down from the church and sang three songs for the people passing by…
Exploring Barcelona
Today, we traveled to Saint Gaudens, France. We had a four hour drive (with a rest stop for a picnic lunch!) Then, we arrived at the church. We met Pastor Price and had a wonderful church service.
Arrived and Ready
What an exciting start to our journey! After an early flight to Boston, we coordinated nearly 40 travelers heading to Barcelona…
