Dear All,
Bless your missionary hearts - the hearts that will carry the love of Jesus to the poor!
As Michele quoted from the bible - "the harvest is abundant but the laborers are few"... I'd like to follow up on that train of thought...
Jesus sent 72 disciples to proclaim the good news to the poor. You are now the disciples that Jesus is sending. Whenever you visit a house you will say "Peace to this household". You will say to them "The kingdom of God is at hand for you." You will bring the the love of Jesus in your heart - this is by far the most effective way of evangelization. They will see that people in Canada care for them - it is the love of Jesus that made you want go and be with them.
Don't forget to mention that your trip is made possible by the many, many, many workers who are left here in Canada. Pray also for us that we will make it to the next batch if not this year - the next.
We, whom Jesus chose to work "locally" and got left behind are still part very much part of the "72" that Jesus is sending. We will continue the work of GK Youth Build here in Canada. We will build up the Canadian youth that comes our way and help them become heroes like you.
We will continue with our main task -

We will continue with our main task -
BUILDING COMMUNITIES. BUILDING THE YOUTH.
We will continue to build the communities of love - for the poor (materially and spiritually) in Canada. There are many youths who are lost and live a life with no purpose. We will build the youth and give them hope - hope for themselves, hope for the future, hope for a better world. WE WILL MAKE HEROES OF THEM! Winning heroes in the war against poverty of spirit and not the gang war.
The harvest is abundant but the laborers are few. Indeed the harvest is abundant - there are many youth who are searching for a better world. We are few - but take heart - Jesus is our main energy source - He will be our General Commander. He will connect us with other youth groups who are as passionate like us - who will help us along the way.We will rejoice because Jesus will make us effective workers. We will rejoice because we will conquer the negativity that surrounds the youth.
However, Jesus will say
- rejoice more because your names are written in heaven."
God bless us all (those who are traveling as well as those who chose to work here locally)
