Our staff has grown by leaps and bounds since we joined the ministry 8 years ago. We have grown in numbers as well as maturity in our own personal faith journeys. I look at our staff sometimes and just giggle. God has this crazy group together for His purpose and His glory. The reason I giggle is because we are a rag tag bunch for sure, but a bunch who is committed to serving Christ, loving others and growing The Kingdom. We are committed to growing in our personal walks and allowing Him to work on us in the process, and we are committed to doing God's will for our lives; which just happens to be serving with G.O. Ministries. God is still working on all of us through our faults and through our humanness, but He has no doubt brought us together to do some major damage (in a good way) in Jesus' name.
We come from all different walks of life, and this is why we make a great team. We're a powerful force. We use each others experiences and wisdom to learn and to grow. There are many of us who come from brokenness. There are many of us who battle our own demons of selfishness and pride, and many who struggle with trust and forgiveness. But, the beautiful thing about it all is that we recognize we have all been redeemed by the blood of Christ and we are works in progress. We use our stories for His purpose.
We ask that you pray for us as our fullest season of ministry approaches. We are humbled that we have the opportunity to be even the smallest part of this life changing experience for team members. If you find yourself reading this and you are coming on a short-term trip to the DR this year, know that we are praying for you and we will be welcoming you with open arms!
