Fountain of Life Team 2nd Week



We have just finished working with the Fountain of Life Team from Kernersville NC. Their ministry time here serving at Pan De Vida, meaning Bread of Life, was amazing. We worked alongside serving over 400 meals to the poorest of the poor, took the children to the amusement park and zoo, and started a bathroom to help accommodate all the people who come each week to hear the Word of God. We weren’t able to finish the bathroom project but the maestro and his team will finish it in a few weeks after the concrete has cured. This was a disappointment to the team because the normal for us Americans is if we start something we want to finish it. God has a plan and it is in His timing. As we ended our second week with this team, there were many whose lives have been changed forever. Again, ER is about changing lives for both the people we partner with all over the world and the people who come on a short term team. It is a step of faith for those who come on a mission trip and we want to encourage all of you who read this to have this experience of a lifetime. It might not be Ecuador but it could be with any of our other places we serve around the world. Many times you may ask God why am I here and not get an answer, other times He may answer with a clear understanding. Mike and I are so blessed to be a part of this ministry and pray we can continue to see lives changed in the future.
