It’s never too late for a life changing experience

Do you think you have to be young to have an adventure?  To be able to step out of your comfort zone and make a difference?  Well, I am living proof that it is never too late.  For the past year or two I have sensed God gently nudging me to step out of my comfort zone and follow my passion for giving.  One day, while surfing on the internet, I happened across the Adventures in Missions website and saw they had a trip to Vietnam.  At first I thought this was something I couldn’t possibly do at my age on my own, but God kept nudging me until I could no longer avoid his call.   So, I set off for Vietnam in July of 2014 and my life from that day forward will never be the same.   The people I met there taught me the true meaning of humility and actually seeing God’s work being carried out half way across the world was truly inspiring.  I had the great fortune of actually being present with a woman who was hearing and accepting the good news of the gospel for the very first time and it brought me to tears.  I will carry that experience with me for the rest of my life. 

Vietnam is a beautiful country with warm and welcoming people.  There is so much work to be done in that country and I can only say you will be blessed beyond belief and your life will be enriched by participating in a mission trip there.
