You know, our time
comes and goes so rapidly.
00:00:01.36\00:00:03.16
And this is a program I
just don't want to see end
00:00:03.20\00:00:05.20
but it's come to an end.
00:00:05.23\00:00:06.97
But I want to take this time
and reiterate and strengthen
00:00:07.04\00:00:09.60
your passion for missions.
00:00:09.64\00:00:10.97
Yes.
00:00:11.01\00:00:12.34
Pete, I'll start
with you as a builder
00:00:12.37\00:00:14.01
and as a person that saw
that great water miracle.
00:00:14.08\00:00:16.38
Oh, you were there.
00:00:16.41\00:00:17.75
How do you look at
the future with Maranatha?
00:00:17.78\00:00:19.65
Well, I'm very excited
about the future of Maranatha.
00:00:19.68\00:00:22.55
We are just next year
going into two new countries.
00:00:22.58\00:00:26.96
We're going into Peru
00:00:26.99\00:00:28.32
and we're going
into Cote d'Ivoire.
00:00:28.36\00:00:30.56
I was lucky
enough to be on the first
00:00:30.63\00:00:32.76
Maranatha trip to Kenya
00:00:32.79\00:00:34.20
when we started
there a few years ago.
00:00:34.23\00:00:35.96
And now I'll be on the
first trip to Cote d'Ivoire,
00:00:36.00\00:00:38.87
with volunteers.
00:00:38.90\00:00:40.24
So I'm very
excited about all of that.
00:00:40.27\00:00:43.61
I love lead, taking a group
of people into places like that
00:00:43.64\00:00:47.38
and put those buildings up.
00:00:47.41\00:00:49.71
Well, thank you for coming,
Don and Laura, tell us about
00:00:49.74\00:00:53.25
what we could look forward
to in the future with Maranatha?
00:00:53.28\00:00:56.55
More exciting
mission trips. That's right.
00:00:56.58\00:00:58.95
It's all good
00:00:58.99\00:01:00.39
because if you make
yourself available to God,
00:01:00.46\00:01:03.83
He will use you.
00:01:03.86\00:01:05.99
And it'll change you.
00:01:06.03\00:01:07.43
And like, Pete was just saying,
00:01:07.50\00:01:09.60
Peru is very
popular with volunteers.
00:01:09.63\00:01:11.97
In fact, we're
actually full for the first
00:01:12.00\00:01:14.47
quite a few months of
our involvement in Peru
00:01:14.50\00:01:16.84
but there's gonna
be more opportunities.
00:01:16.91\00:01:18.67
They've asked for
1000 projects so we'll see.
00:01:18.71\00:01:22.61
But the work is
growing great there.
00:01:22.64\00:01:24.78
It's an easy place to get to.
00:01:24.81\00:01:26.51
It's safe.
00:01:26.55\00:01:27.88
It's wonderful for volunteers,
beautiful places to visit.
00:01:27.92\00:01:31.42
So Peru is one of the
places that's gonna be exciting,
00:01:31.45\00:01:34.26
along with the places in Africa
00:01:34.29\00:01:36.39
and it's all good, get involved.
00:01:36.42\00:01:39.23
By God's grace, we
will join you and Laura
00:01:39.26\00:01:41.33
and hopefully
Pete on the next time
00:01:41.36\00:01:43.13
we go to Maranatha.
00:01:43.16\00:01:44.63
But we want to encourage
you, Maranatha, Jesus is coming.
00:01:44.67\00:01:47.24
Whatever you can do
to expand this ministry
00:01:47.27\00:01:49.20
and expand the kingdom of God
00:01:49.24\00:01:50.97
will be a tremendous
blessing on behalf of 3ABN.
00:01:51.01\00:01:53.48
May God bless you
00:01:53.51\00:01:54.84
and have a
special day in Christ.
00:01:54.88\00:01:56.21
