The week in Belize was amazing! Seeing the people and the conditions in which they live and work reminds me of how fortunate I am. I had the opportunity to work with the local people on painting the inside of a church. The next day we went to an orphanage. While there we did sports evangelism and put together a program for the kids. This orphanage was not like our orphanages. Some of the kids have been living there for over 15 years. Our goal was just to show God’s love. I spent time with Adam. I’m not sure how we got together. On Friday we had a block party and invited the entire neighborhood to see the church that had been freshly painted. It was a huge success. We did face painting, fed poor children and made crafts. Events like this don’t happen often for these young people. Here in the United States, we tend to take so much for granted. We have so much. This missions trip reminded me to be grateful for all that I have–which is a lot! -Jon Borgstat age 15

“Bill & Kathy, I miss you ever so much. As we know, it was God’s will and plan for us to connect using you through your missionary work. I am compelled in reciting the “The Five Purposes of A Godly Purpose Driven Life”; for we were made to live a purpose-driven life!

1) WORSHIP: We were planned for God’s pleasure!
2) FELLOWSHIP: We were formed for a family!
3) DISCIPLESHIP: We were created to become like Christ!
4) MINISTRY: We were shaped for serving God!
5) EVANGELISM: We were made for a mission

The calling to go to Belize to serve certainly speaks to the above. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for accepting me to serve under your mission regardless of my age. God’s Grace, Peace and Joy be with your family. I miss you guys ever so much…LOVE You and In Christ we stand… -God Bless” Alfred -age 61 Redding, Ca.

“I’ve been going to church for about three years now. I’ve walked the aisle to get saved three times but never really got saved. I just thought it would be cool to go on a mission’s trip when we got the opportunity. Before the mission trip I was struggling with doubt and whether or not my relationship with Christ was real. The first day we got to Belize I immediately hated it. But when we did our worship service that night I felt God’s presence so strong that I started to want more. The night our team shared their testimonies my friend Marcus started talking about Jesus on the cross and I knew then that I had to have that. After it was over I went and talked to Marcus and he prayed with me. I got saved Wednesday June 24, 2009. If it wasn’t for Mr. Bill and Mrs. Kathy with their ministry I may have never gotten saved. I love Mr. Bill, Mrs. Kathy and everyone else that made this experience so great.” Troy -age 15 Orange Park, Fl.

When James Calvert went out as a missionary to the cannibals of the Fiji Islands, the ship captain tried to turn him back, saying, “You will lose your life and the lives of those with you if you go among such savages.” To that, Calvert replied, “We died before we came here.”

“I came to Belize not knowing what to expect but what I did know was that God desired to use me, that He loved me and that my life would not be the same after this trip. Mission Belize at DCI has left me speechless. Every day God showed me His amazing grace by using me again and again to touch lives and bring Him glory. I cried as I washed the feet of little children and gave them new sandals. I danced with orphans as they sang songs of worship. I painted the nails of teen girls and prayed with teen boys at a detention center about their dreams for the future. My life has changed, God used me and I feel His love like never before. Thank you Bill and Kathy for laying a foundation that I could walk on and serve God’s people.” Larisa -age 25 Atlanta, Ga.

Jeff’s testimony:
My Mission Trip to Belize
What is a mission? Mr. Webster (Dictionary) says, “It’s a task to be carried out to obtain a result.” The task and work carried out was to use my hands and skills, which God has gifted me with. The result was to better God’s Kingdom. I’ve been saved now for two years. This is something I wanted to do and it was an eye opener on what we (Christians) need to be doing…getting out of our comfort zones. As we wait for Jesus to come back for us, we can’t just sit and do nothing. We will have to give an account for our time on earth. James 2:26 says that Faith with out works is dead. It was amazing to see and hear the people that God had chosen for this work mission. Chuck, who became my friend from Faith Outreach Center, said to me, “I don’t know what I can do here; I’m a postal worker but God gave me these hands, so I came by faith to do something.” God picked a mailman, a truck driver, a schoolteacher, a loan consultant and Robin (a miracle) who was hit by a drunk driver and whom doctors said would not walk. And here she is swinging a three-foot machete, doing yard clean up! This mission trip to Belize encouraged me and gave me confirmation that we can do all things through Christ Jesus…
God bless the Dream Center in Belize!
