At this time of the year it can be so easy to get caught up in the chaos and commercialism of our modern culture. Being on SPIRITUS has been such an amazing gift for me because I am surrounded by people who live in the present, who remain focused on Jesus Christ no matter what life throws at them. My team mates have helped me to stay grounded in the truth that I am a child of God, that I am created to share the light of Christ. We celebrated this holiday with each other by having a team dinner, during which we went around the table saying what we are thankful for, how we appreciate the gifts God has given us. It was so nice to recognize the abundance of blessings we have received throughout the first few months of the mission year. I invite you and your family to do the same. How much joy we receive when we take notice of all the wonderful things God provides us with!
From my family to yours, Happy Thanksgiving!
