Jason Reeves – Shreveport, LA
The opportunity to unplug from the comfort zone and enter into a greater zone of dependency with the Lord is a blessing. This trip was significant to me in several areas, particularly in the chance to minister encouragement and hope to some amazing members of God’s family, [Read more...]

Now THAT was an amazing ten days.
(Contribution from Amy Layman about the Central America Trip from January 2012)
We landed in Liberia, Costa Rica on January 5th and from there ventured to Playa Sámara where we spent a day and two nights playing, relaxing, and preparing (and, in Kyle’s and my case, getting engaged!). And, crazily enough, the trip was already being met with some resistance. Jon’s passport was going to expire in 2 months, so, while he was okay to take the domestic flight to Miami, [Read more...]

In August of 2010, we set out to put on a Youth Pastor’s retreat for the first time in Nicaragua, in conjunction with the Centros de Fe fellowship in Masatepe, where Victor and Angela Benitez are pastors. We had worked on it for some months on the lead up, and this was FXMissions first official trip. We had ten team members from Mexico and the US, plus the guys on the ground. To know more about this trip, see Field Note Nicaragua. [Read more...]

Brittani Miller writes here to give us a peak into what Jesus had in mind in the recent MorningStar MSU Special Forces Missions trip I helped to lead to Nicaragua. Thanks for sharing Brittani! Find out more about MorningStar at www.morningstarministries.org.
My trip to Nicaragua was filled with the most amazing highs and lows I have ever experienced. I describe both my lows and highs as amazing because it was during my lowest times that Jesus showed up with incredible power, covering for my inadequacies with his infinite love and glory. [Read more...]

A photo here from ministry in a nearby village from last night. Was a powerful time. Team really did well, after transportation difficulties for much of the day. The people in the village had been waiting did nearly four hours while we found an alternate vehicle on the fly. But their hunger was met by the Lords abundant blessings. Thank you Jesus.
It was a powerful time for us all. More details when opportunity permits.
Blessings from the field!
Trip Summary – Nicaragua FXMissions Trip Aug2010 / Part One

Jeff, Alex and I
When we set out, a little over a year ago, to begin a small-team, short-term missions sending group, there were a lot of things that we felt were central and would be needed to make a good start. Group training events facilitating team unity, team members from different areas, physical readiness, and a good destination for our first trip. As Yuri and I sat down to discuss the state of things toward the end of our time in Nicaragua, we realized that what we had felt was needed to prepare a team for our first trip had all been assembled and put in place, but not by means we envisioned from our original plans. The LORD had done it his own way, and brought it all together by His grace. This feels good, and right. [Read more...]
