Bryan Gibbs' Story

Trip leader Bryan Gibbs reports on how amazing his first post covid trip on the river was:

The time we had in the villages was very sweet. One of the hard things I heard twice was, “when your team didn’t come in 2020, we thought you had forgotten about us”

That was an opportunity to definitely correct that thinking and say, we never forgot about you at all. Even those that didn’t make the trip this year, they didn’t forget about you either. More importantly God hasn’t forgotten you.

The same enemy that planted those thoughts in the villages also planted so many negative thoughts in my head. I was saying it’s too hard, not enough people, covid hurdles, etc to try to get this trip to be postponed to 2022. But I am so glad we went.

By the power of the Holy Spirit and by nothing of ourselves we were able to accomplish much with 4 Americans and 6 translators. He can accomplish much through those who are faithful, obedient, and available. To God be the glory.
