Adult & Family Mission Trips
Missions Trips: A Great Way to Experience and Encounter God
by Jeff Williams
A growing number of people are finding that going on a Short-term Missions
Trip helps deepen their spiritual life. As recently as thirty years ago, missions was the province of a dedicated, elite corps of Christians. However, today's reduced travel costs and enhanced communications have opened up a world of missions opportunities to laymen everywhere.
I'm a case in point. I had been teaching a Sunday Bible study to high school students at Johnson's Ferry Baptist Church in Marietta. My daughter was a freshman and my wife was involved with the youth department. When they both decided to go, I felt I should go, primarily to accompany them.
I was motivated by a sense of guilt and obligation. I felt guilty because spring break for me had always been a time to relax, to play golf and tennis, to go to the beach. Going to Mexico would mean giving up these things that I liked to do, but what a small sacrifice compared to what Christ had done for me! I felt obligated because my daughter and wife were going. I didn't have any understanding of the spiritual impact that the trip would have on me.
My motives for going on that first trip to the slums of Reynosa, Mexico
may have been mixed, but God wasted no time in changing my perspective.
