Glorious Mission Monday on Sunset Beach, FL

by Daniel Saint-Pierre

Elizabeth, Grace, Trinity, Faith and I were blessed earlier today with an outing we will not soon forget, when the Lord provided perfect weather and a mission field beyond our own deserving: Sunset Beach!

We’d been to Sunset many times before, and already ranked this secluded beach at the top of our list for more reasons than we can count. But today, as if perfect weather and a smooth drive wasn’t enough, God delivered one new ingredient to an already divine recipe: a Playground for the kids!

That’s right folks! Swings, slides & climby thingies.

I didn’t get shots of the play area since we discovered it on our way out adjacent the old parking lot we’d been using for years. it turns out the city of Treasure Island recently built a playground & covered pavilion. Praise Jesus! Our favorite beach is now, well, even better!

All I can say is thank you Lord. Here are a few shots from today, enjoy!!!

Glorious Day at Indian Rocks’ Heritage Village…

by Daniel Saint-Pierre

The Lord blessed Elizabeth, the girls and I again today with a glorious outing to one of our favorite spots, Heritage Village located adjacent the Florida botanical Gardens.

It has been far too long since we visited the turn of the century village, so today as part of our ministry, we ventured out to Indian Rocks where we enjoyed an ice cold soda, fellowship & worship… Enjoy the shots below, we had a blast putting this pictorial together for you to share in the moment.

Huge Payout on a Splendid Mission Monday! Praises to Yahweh!

by Daniel Saint-Pierre

Our Lord blessed the girls and I again today far beyond deserving. Out on a yet another phenomenal Mission Monday on Clearwater Beach, it was the drive to the beach that revealed to be this week’s biggest payout…

Don’t let the pictures fool you, today’s payoff cannot be measured in dollars.

First the obvious; Thanks be to the Almighty, I unleashed God’s thunder on the beach today!!! Hitting righty, then lefty, putting up walls at the net forcing opponents to shank spikes all over the place, Rhino and I didn’t win many games but we sure made a bunch of fans who wondered if we were “AVP or just real, real good players.”

See for yourself, it gets better…

While the fifties aren’t real currency, they’re Christian tracts we plant as spiritual seeds all over the beaches and theme parks we are blessed to count as our mission field. You see, among other activities, beach volleyball doubles as a ministry outreach, using scripture empowered $50 or Christian Worship CDs.

With 3 young daughters, our approach needs to be both passive enough to avoid conflict, yet aggressive to reach even the most hardened hearts.

Which area of Ministry are you involved in? Remember, ministry doesn’t have to hurt to bear fruit… and bleeding is not a requirement to go on a short term mission trip.

Get involved! God’s blessings await you in Ministry, and in Short Term Missions…

Awesome Mission Monday on Clearwater Beach!

by Daniel Saint-Pierre

We were blessed with another spectacular Mission Monday outing today, as the St.Pierre’s hit Pier 60 and Clearwater Beach, FL. God delivered fantastic Florida weather, perfect for the girls to play in the Gulf water, and for yours truly to get some hits with the Fearsome Foursome!

You already know I love the beach. Also beach vball ranks at the top of my list of summer sports. Actually in FL, we play year round praise God!!!

So today we planned on passing out tracts, CD’s and 50’s, but I left our goodies box at home so…. We did pray and sangs songs of worship, but no tracts this week… :(

Still we got a few nice snap shots that depict the morning pretty well, enjoy!!!
