One Light Community AKMC

The mission of God may not be about you, but it continues with you. When it comes to missions, people generally expect certain things to happen while they are there. That is where we struggle in hearts between gaining experience from doing the mission of God and expecting to see miraculous things happen for your own pleasure.

AKMC Mission Retreat Special

Wanting to go on missions should be from your adoration towards God and his mission, not from your need to make yourself feel better by being spiritually affected by these missions. Know the mission of God. Do the mission of God for God, not for yourself.
