Short mission trip

1. An example I can associate with is when you see people on the streets begging for money or food and you wonder if they are going to use that money for what they say they will. In fact it is good for having sensible hearts to these things, to be careful but simultaneously not to forget the way in that God watches them. And simultaneously God helps us to be wise in which we are going to do.
   
2. An understanding of what the Bible says about injustice- we must study what the Bible says on the injustice, because this not only helps us to be able to have weighty arguments at the time of defending or requesting justice by something, but it helps us to be patient and to remember of which there are things that we are not going to be able to solve but that at the time God will be in charge to do the correct thing. we of arms are called on to hope to us in God but simultaneously not having left cruzados, but giving the example and helping so that in which we can there is more justice.
3. Take action- we cannot either be without doing nothing. We must try to give the example, to use the abilities that we must to help a world of more justice and if we are in the power to do it, to teach to him to people on the injustice so that they also can make the change.

1- Generally this means that the ignorance on a culture can distract the people of that culture of the message of Christ. In addition the chapter speaks of which always we must think before doing or to say to something then this can do that the people of the culture where we are, do not trust us and think that we are some disrespectful people.

2- One of the most important things is the way in that we are going away to dress. I believe that generally all we got dressed a cautious perhaps way but we can fall in using things that stop we are normal but for them no well it is seen.

We give to have well-taken care of in the way that we treated to the men and women because sometimes previous the Peruvians have liked of the Panamanians and I believe that we must be always careful so that there is not distraction in which we are doing. Dedebemos to try to be careful but not to go us to the end of being contemptuous.

Another one is the respect. Perhaps then for some of us it can be more difficult to acquire confidence with somebody, but they can be a little more confiansudos either others can be the more timid, then we must take into account this for thus to respect the differences of each and to respect that.

3- I believe that most difficult for my it can be the food. Generally all type of food enchants to me which was a little difficult for because I do not like to eat that type of animal, but I believe that he is something that I have just as to accept of respectful way and to eat a little at least not to despise the food.

the past year I was chef and hize very good relations with the cooks and helped to see new things me and to apreder new things.

7 important things for traveling

1. Remember that Jesus reward risk.

2. Remember that there are no guarantees.

3. All of life involves risk, but we don't look for risk either.

4. When you do need to risk, risk on things that are worth it.

5. Manage risk by training yourself to do three things: be alert, be knowledgeable and be wise.

6. When something bad happens -and something bad will happen- be calm and compliant.

7. Don't make the focus of your trip eliminating or managing risk.

I feel strong about 1,2 and 7

Estoy de acuerdo con todos los puntos. El único pedazo con el que no estoy completamente de acuerdo es la parte que dice: -something bad will happen- .I do not believe that necessarily something bad is going to happen but because we go to a foreign country and without some comforts, probably always it is going to have something is going to us to bother or that it is not going to get used to it.

I believe that points 1, 2 and 7 are the points in which I feel like more fort but not necessarily it means that when finds me in some situation can act as fodder that would do it. If I believe that in fact God allows the things by something and that if he is allowing us to go to Peru to fulfill a mission then also is going to us to protect; although that does not mean that it is not going to pass absolutely nothing.

PART 3

From the first time that I went to Peru I thought that it was not a place so surely and in fact when fodder in going to Mancora by the place in himself would not want to go but when memory to the people who live there and the reason for which we go to Mancora, fodder that does not concern the place, God is with us.

I believe that when really you want to do something or you know that to do it he is something that will make you feel well, you remember that to perseverar in reaching that, it is worth the pain.

#8

I believe that the place where we are going to be can be one of the most dangerous things. Perhaps foreign we as do not know how dangerous can be that area but I believe that yes it is an area in whom we must walk with well-taken care Dos & Dont's.

Some of the things that I believe that they can be to me more difficult from both and Don'ts are: - To only wash the teeth to me with water bottles. Perhaps it can be a little uncomfortable although the somthing that could happen.

-Time for journaling- Sometimes I am difficult to me to write my thoughts, likes more to speak them. I do not like much to write but it is certain that this is something that in the future is going to help to me to be able to remember those important moments and those that God speaks life.

-to have toilet to paper. jaja Usually I do not like to walk loading so many things but I create is important to have it by hand.

-sometimes we can have some travel stress.

3rd part

Since I have traveled before to Peru I feel but calm with the fact to take the irrigations. Since in the years happened, whenever we got to have to make those decisions important, and that we needed to take risks. Mancora is not a dangerous place to where there is danger constantly. I do not feel been in danger aya. But something if he can happen that he is that we become ill and that the enemy can take it like advantage. We have a long trip in the bus and is canson well, but we must go with the open mind. Each trip is different and we know that to hope of but it is an adventure. Satan always this around the corner stops there to take the change to make our plans and Gods plans turn all around. But at the end of the day we know that God is in Control of everything we do. I believe that the 7 things mentioned in the article, are an essential key that we can use if in any case we needed it.

#7

I believe that one of the greatest challenges of the Galvez is going to be the difference of cultures and religion. I imagine that for them mudarse to Panama was difficult but not as much because Panama is a country that it shares some things with Colombia because both are Latin countries and are many Colombians in Panama which could make them feel more comfortable, but Guinea it is a totally different country where not only they must learn a new language, but also a new culture.

In addition the fact to not knowing many people can cause that at moments they feel single. And I believe that another difficulty we are to live in a culture that does not believe then in God although we created in him, likes to share with other people exceeds he and this them can be difficult.

2nd part

I believe that it was very certain; obvious Peru is not Africa but it is certain that for example we often spoke more than we listened We feel that we are going to help or to solve a problem, but I liked much when Oscar says that when the people go in short-term missions, that affects them more to them that to the people who live in the place because one cannot make changes in so just a short time and that in fact it seems to me very sensible. It is a super experience and we make friendly and really I am sure that we can be example for them but we do not know which is the true reality of them no matter how hard we spend a whole month there. I believe that we must go with a listening attitude, of which they can feel that what they say is important and that we are not going to change them. Since I have commented previously, that we can go not in the bubble of “our culture” but opened to learn the culture of them. We need an attitude humility and simplicity, I believe that is more important, and mainly to go with a prepared heart to serve to God and them.

part 1

I think the difference of going to Mancora as a servent and going to Mancora to serve is that Many people could go to Mancora to serve, because to serve she is to help, to be at the disposal of another one, but we go not only because we want to help, we go because God commands to us to be servants. I believe that the difference is in obedience to God. In going like crew members of God, obeying to which he calls to us and not only going to help because we want to go. To serve implies to work and to help, we can do that in different situations; but to be crew members is something of complete time. But to be crew members implies serving.

We cannont truly serve those we do not know and love- It is like when you have to a friend and a well-known. If your friend asks to you that you help him with the task, probably you are going it to do and with taste, but your well-known asks to you that you help it with the task, perhaps you do it but no perhaps necessarily with the same taste, or not even you help it. Also when we do not know and we loved anybody is more difficult to serve, simply because we do not know who is and we did not feel the same satisfaction when serving.

part 2

To get closer to God- the question I have is 'Whats going to happen to me know" the future...One of the things that I have felt from the beginning of the preparation for Peru, is that God really called to me to take this passage from Faith. In addition something that I believe that habia forgotten is that when we served to God we must be arranged to sufir.

What i want to learn from this trip:

1-To be able to understand more what is to be crew members of God.

2-To know which is the direction that I must follow after this.

3-To construct more and to better relations with the people of Mancora and my team. 4-To have an attitude of love and humility.

PASTOR GARY

talked about- Aligning to us with the plans of God for century 21.

1. The world has been turned around! 2. The Gospel is the Kingdom of God! 3. The social unit is essential for the credibility! 4. To send the correct people to correct people! 5. You would find pain and suffering

One was which the world has changed and of which for example now missionaries of developed countries rise not only more, etc but missionaries rise misionaries all over the world. Of which we must speak to him to the people of God and announce to them of the kingdom of God of a way in which they also can understand. Of which the unit of the body of Christ allows that people can trust which we spoke or we preached, because many people preach or share the gospel but they are not example than they say. That God commands to different people to share envelope he to those who does not know of him. And that we must know that the fact to follow God and to share its gospel us can bring suffering and pain, thus we must be prepared for this.

I think #3 is really important because not only we are going as people from Panama but also we are going as the body of christ, and we are going to be judge and critizied by our actions. This are the reason why we must have unit and harmony so that people not only see a group, but to God through us.

Part 3

Crossroads is a church were we have a lot of different aspects of religion and ethnic groups. This can be a great advantage for us because there are learned to coexist with different cultures, although simultaneously this it is possible to be returned difficult due to the difference that exist. Something that really put to think much to me of the article went that when we are going to make missions we do not have to teach not to force to others to be like of our culture, but we must be reconciled to the culture of them and that not this so easy because there are certain habits that one has own of the culture. I believe that of it deals with the body of Christ, of which in the middle of our diversity as much in Crossroads as in Peru and the Body of Christ generally we know to respect our differences, we know to listen to the different opinions and to try to coexist in harmony being learned some of the other, working in equipment and remembering that all we are different but all of us are sons of God. 

- I believe that this is something that from the start of we see know. It is not easy to arrive at a country and to work and only to speak to him to the people of God, etc., we must recordae that this is not about us. We must be sensitised of which we do not go of stroll and to ask to him to God that mantenfa focused to us in him. That when we are there we are not only sharing between us, but with all the people of Mancora, learning of its culture and working together like the body of Christ. 

- one of the ideas that i liked the most is were it says " the poor do not need to be integrated into our community. God is calling us, rather, to identify with their." Is something that we forget very easily. This is a reality that has occurred from always but he is something sad because to that it is not what God has called us.
