After Camp Day 3: Mission

Read John 1:1-14

The theme for your week at camp, Robes of Hope, really had two areas of focus. We had to consider who might feel vulnerable in our community and why. But we also had to consider ourselves what ways we might need to make ourselves more vulnerable – thinking about ways that we have maybe been wrong.

One of the greatest lessons God has offered our world about how our expectations may have been wrong was Jesus. When Jesus came as God’s presence on earth – the incarnation – he showed us that God’s love is a gift of God’s presence. In order to be the presence of Christ to others, we may have to consider what that means. We may need to look at new ways that we can share our love and our faith at home. We may need to be more vulnerable than we have been and may need to consider that we have more to offer and to learn in the communities we call home.

Reflection

Who are some people that would partner with you in being God’s presence in your community?

Prayer

God who is present among us, help us all to be willing to be your presence in the world and to feel your presence in places where we might not expect it.

Does any of this sound familiar? -I’ve never bee Does any of this sound familiar?
-I’ve never been more tired, and I’ve never felt closer to God. 
-I went there expecting to bless others, but I ended up receiving more than I gave. 
-I wish I could feel as close to God at home as I do on a mission trip. 

If you’ve experienced a life–changing mission trip, church camp, or retreat, you know all about the mountaintop experience. You come back, and you’re determined to keep that excitement from then on. 

But like a New Year’s resolution or a goal for a new school year, eventually the excitement fades. Wouldn’t it be great if you could keep that mission-trip excitement year-round? 

The truth is, if you just want to KEEP the excitement, you’ll likely be disappointed. That excitement can inspire your group to a lifetime of mission, but what you’re doing (or not doing) to prepare may be what’s killing it. So here are 5 things you need to stop doing if you want to sustain your passion for mission year-round.
