Missionary Trips are not for consumers.  If you want to have a cool experience meeting where you get to feel good about helping people, eat some new foods, and come back with stories to tell your book club, then don't come.  We are going to El Salvador to make disciples who make disciples.  It will be an adventure, but it may not be fun.  The Enemy doesn't like it.  He will fight us on all fronts.  He may even attack your family while you are gone.  This is not missionary tourism, this is a war for the souls of men.  Don't go for an experience.  Go for the Kingdom of God.  

Jake and Sarah Howard from Guinea, West Africa are going to be visiting Restoration as our missions emphasis speakers on August 13-14.  Jake and Sara will join us for Church on Saturday night the 13th (Lord willing) and Sunday morning the 14th.  We will also be talking about missions as it relates to praying, serving, and giving.  See you then!   In the meantime, be in prayer.
