Serving God... Navajo Family Missions Series Introduction...Taking Christianity Into the World

Serving the One True God in the Desert of the Navajo

This is first of the Navajo Family Mission Series and the introduction to our Weekly Family Trip To Serve the Navajo People of Pueblo Pintado. It is about sixty people who for an entire week lay down their jobs, vacations and responsibilities to be the very hands and feet of Christ. This is their story. Jesus often withdrew to the solitude of the desert to pray and be strengthened. Come along side us and see the changes of hearts, passions and lives as God joins us on our journey To catch a further look at our vision for our work there visit http://www.hiscpa.com/blog/2009/07/30/casting-a-vision-navajo-family-missions-taking-christianity-into-the-world/  If you and your church are encouraged by our journey, join us as we look to revival for the Navajo People, by taking Christianity Into the World

Prologue:

When Carol was preparing mentally for this mission trip to Pueblo Pint ado, Brandon Heath's song Give Me Your Eyes was being played many times on the radio station that she was listening to. The chorus goes like this:

Give me Your eyes for just one second
Give me Your eyes so I can see
Everything that I keep missing
Give me Your love for humanity
Give me Your arms for the broken hearted
Ones that are far beyond my reach
Give me Your heart for the ones forgotten
Give me Your eyes so I can see

Her prayers for our mission trip to Pueblo Pintado were that we would see things from God's perspective and that we would be totally yielded to the power of His Holy Spirit. She believes that God sometimes impresses the words of a song on her mind to keep her focused on what He wants to be accomplished through the people around her and that the timing of this song being played over and over when she was listening to the radio was no coincidence. God was telling her that if we would give Him our eyes, our love, our arms, and our hearts, He would reveal to us what we needed to see. May God bless you as you read these remembrances of the 2009 Pueblo Pintado Mission trip.

Dare to Attempt Something so Great for the Kingdom of God that it is doomed to failure, lest Christ be in it!
