Mission Monday at Clearwater Beach, FL

We were blessed today with another mission short trip to a local favorite spot, Clearwater Beach, the very beach where Elizabeth and I were married back in December, 2003.

CD I am Found by Craig ThompsonToday instead of passing out Christian tracts as part of our God given mission, we brought Graig Thompson’s CD single, “I Am Found.”

Since the CD insert contained awe inspiring content, it made perfect sense to replace our homemade tracts with the beautifully designed CD, a certain hit among those who will be blessed to give it a listen after a long day at the beach.

I took the time to shoot and stitch a quick panorama, do enjoy it below by clicking your mouse over the image and dragging your pointer any direction, or by using your keyboard arrows.

We are immensely grateful to almighty God for His outpouring of blessings in our lives and for His will which allows for such incredible outings, and the mission field He has entrusted my family and I with… the beach! How great is our God?

Mission Monday @ Tampa’s MOSI

With temperatures nearing 100°F today, we opted to take our weekly short mission trip to MOSI, in Tampa instead of treking out to Disney World where we typically like to do God’s work as a family.

MOSI is a better choice on hot summer days since it’s indoors and conveniently air conditioned. Plus since we have annual VIP passes, which are also a blessing from God and His will for our family, the girls get to go on any ride they wish. It’s funny how in spite of the VIP access we have the girls’ favorite place to play turns out to be the “Farm” area where they get to pretend they’re harvesting and grocery shopping for produce, taking after their shopping savvy mom Elizabeth whose tips continue to be a blessing to countless moms worldwide.

If you find yourself debating over a thrilling place for the kids to play as you engage with parents and pass out tracts, MOSI should be near the top of your list, specially during blistering hot Florida summers.
