LAST DAY
As we end our last day in Lukulu we can't thank everyone enough for one, the incredible donars who made this trip possible and secondly the amazing locals of Lukulu, Zambia providing such great hospitality and ability to make all of us feel so at home. For lack of a better cliche.. I can't put into words how life altering and eye opening this mission trip was. The people of Zambia have truly touched our hearts in a way that only can be done with such great faith. Even though we came here with plenty of supplies, donations, and visions, we leave here with so much more spiritually. Which was the response to today's gospel, in life we have to let go of all of the things that weigh us down and find inner peace within our faith. In the words of Father Chibesa "Great faith without good works is dead although good works without great faith is also dead" Speaking for all of the missionaries I truly believe we all have a stronger faith as well as confidence in our faith due to this trip. It was such a bittersweet goodbye as we shared our last meal and presented gifts to each other but we wouldn't have asked for a better night to end our mission trip. Again, we thank everyone for making this possible, its such a blessing to have the opportunity to do such great works of God. Please pray for us to have a safe journey home and for the people of Lukulu. God Bless!
