Belize Mission Team Updates

Day 1 (Saturday) - Team arrived safely in Belize City, Belize about an hour later than expected due to a delay in our flight leaving the USA.  The team met Pastor Caleb and Pastor Lee.  After settling into the El Rey Hotel, we had dinner with Pastor Lee, Robin and his kids.  The team spent the evening preparing to lead the Sunday services at Pastor Lee's church.

Day 2 (Sunday) - Several hundred people gathered at LifeNet Church Sunday morning.  Pastor David preached the sermon Sunday morning on Identity in Christ.  The message was well received and the worship awesome.  In another room the rest of the team lead children's church by utilizing puppets, skits, crafts, a message, games and snacks.  For many on the team this was their first opportunity to prayer with the people of Belize.  The team reinforced the message on Identity and Christ and how we need to grow in our faith.

In the afternoon Pastor Lee took the team to a swimming hole, which was a great team building event.

Day 3 (Monday) - In the morning after breakfast the team headed from Belmopan up to San Ignacio in the mountains of Belize.  The team checked in the Venus hotel and then headed over to the Arms of Love church.  The Arms of Love church is one of several churches in Belize that GCC has helped support over the past 10 years.  This year is the 10th Anniversary of the Arms of Love Church in Belize.

The team partnered with young people and adult leaders from the Arms of Love church to pass out flyers for the VBS which we would lead on day 4.

Each member of the team was given the opportunity to share a devotional with the group and to share their testimony throughout the week.
