Atlanta CPA Asks…What Would Jesus Do: Taking Christ with Us…Navajo Family Missions Series Day 8… Taking Christianity Into the World 

This is Day 8 of the Navajo Family Mission Series of our Weekly Family Trip To Serve the Navajo People of Pueblo Pintado. It is about sixty people who for an entire week lay down their jobs, vacations and responsibilities to be the very hands and feet of Christ. This is their story. Jesus often withdrew to the solitude of the desert to pray and be strengthened. Come along side us and see the changes of  hearts, passions and lives as God joins us on our journey To catch a further look at our vision for our work there visit http://www.hiscpa.com/blog/2009/07/30/casting-a-vision-navajo-family-missions-taking-christianity-into-the-world/   If you and your church are encouraged by our journey, join us as we look to revival for the Navajo People, by taking Christianity Into the World

“Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me—put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you.” Philippians 4:8-9 

Day 8 – Saturday – July 17, 2009 – Going Home 

This was a day of rest for the team members.  Some of the team spent time in Albuquerque  while others went on ahead to the airport.  Everyone did a little shopping and had a good meal.  We boarded the airplane around 5:45 p.m. Mountain time and had a layover in Dallas before getting the airplane again at 10:00 p.m. Central time for our flight home.  Carol had to admit that she was ready to go home as she had been developing a cold the entire day sitting in the airport.  She tried to sleep on the flight back to Atlanta, but sleep would not come. She was sitting at a window seat and opened her eyes to stare at the night sky.  She was so amazed to see the Big Dipper outside her airplane window.  She just stared at it in awe.  She knew that this was God showing her that wherever He was, she was home.  You see, a lot of evenings,  Carol will walk outside her home and find the Big Dipper.  She even saw the Big Dipper when she was at Pueblo Pintado  walking back to her house with Elizabeth E. one evening.  Whenever she is obedient to be where God wants her to be, she is at home with God in her sanctuary (this is what she calls her home).  After the trip, Carol related seeing the Big Dipper to her dad and other friends who have been and are still world travelers, and all of them have said that they have never seen anything like this on any of the flights that they have been on.  

The team arrived in Atlanta around 1:30 a.m. and were greeted home by some of our good friends – Hal, Ken, Marleeta, Alex, and Trey.  It was a great ending to our trip to get one last hug before heading to our homes.        

 Dare to Attempt Something so Great for the Kingdom of God that it is doomed to failure, lest Christ be in it!
