On mission together....

On Friday, Naomi and I took on a monumental task together. As the weather was looking promising, and our motivation was enought, we started a hike up Mt. Arrowsmith (5967 feet). If you have ever been to Vancouver Island, you will see this magnificent peak. The route we took, called the Judges Route, is a steep ascent that had our muscles burning quickly (1km elevation gain in 6 km).
So as we headed up and up, I was reminded how we needed each other. Our mission was clear...to get to the top of the mountain, and we encouraged each other that we could do it.

I am reminded how we are able to lean in and help each other when we realize our common mission as followers of Jesus. This mission, to make disciples who are making disciples, is a call for everyone to participate in. As we understand and participate in the mission we will all grow in our care for each other and love for one another.

Let's join together in sharing the good news of Jesus. We get to live out...."Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit." Matthew 28:19
