Pastor Chen is a pastor in Toronto, Canada. This summer, he led 31 of his church members (17 are teenagers) to participate in a short mission trip to Honduras, and he journaled down God’s works during his time there.
When we are willing to step out, may the Lord change us with His unchanging love because we so need to be changed!
When we went to Pena de Horeb Church to lead VBS, seeing the bright smiles on the faces of the local children and their patient gratitude, every participating Sunday School teacher from our North American Chinese churches was envious. From these pure and lovely children, we once again saw God’s faithfulness. He really loves each and every one!  In the evening, we had a good fellowship among ourselves, and together, we thanked God for giving us such a wonderful opportunity. We came to Honduras not for sightseeing but for the chance to pass on the love of Jesus Christ through partaking in various ministries, even if it started with offering a small piece of candy.
The fourth day of this trip was the most exciting day. Alice and Ian were baptized in the Pacific Ocean and accepted Jesus Christ as their Savior and Lord of their lives. Our team of over 30 people witnessed God's grace together; this grace, like the vast Pacific Ocean, poured into our hearts.
陳牧師在加拿大多倫多牧會。他在今年暑假帶領了31位教會弟兄姐妹(其中17名青少年)參加了洪都拉斯短宣,他在日記中記錄下了神的作為。
         當我們願意走出去時,求主用祂永遠不改變的愛來改變我們,因為我們太需要被改變了!
當我們去Pena de Horeb教會帶領VBS的時候,看到當地孩子臉上燦爛的笑容和耐心感恩的態度,每一位北美華人教會的主日學老師都羨慕不已。在這些單純可愛的孩子們面前,我們又一次看到神的信實。他真的不偏待人!晚上大家一起分享交通,一起感謝神給了我們如此美好的機會,我們來洪都拉斯不是為了觀光,而是有機會通過參與各項事工把耶穌基督的愛傳遞給那裡的人,哪怕是從給出一個小小的糖果開始。
         短宣的第四天是最激動人心的一天。Alice 和Ian在太平洋里受洗,接受耶穌基督為他們的救主和生命的主。我們一行30多人一起見證了神的恩典,這恩典如同浩瀚的太平洋一樣湧入人們的心田。
