Because Jesus!

There are many reasons people give for wanting to go on a short-term mission trip and many excuses people give for not being able to go. Why should we GO? For me the answer is “Because of Jesus”. Because of all that He has done for us and because He set an example for us, and He says to GO. 

If you are considering serving with Rahab’s Rope here are a few things you can expect. You will get to be a part of some amazing things God is doing on the other side of the world. You will discover you can impact others by using your basic everyday gifts and talents. You will most likely strengthen your own personal faith by stepping outside your comfort zone and immersing yourself in a different culture. All people matter to God. His heart is one of compassion and He sends us out to be ambassadors of grace, mercy and love to the world. Serving on mission means that you will sacrifice your time, talents and money to serve others in the name of Jesus. Jesus said, “The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few; therefore, pray earnestly to the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into His harvest.” Matthew 9”37-38. Jesus sacrificed everything to seek and save the lost. He went on the ultimate mission. We should go on mission because Jesus went on mission for us.

So, believer, what should you do?

Pray! Pray for the nations. Pray for the place God would have you serve. Trust the Lord by doing something that stretches you. Be a blessing. Be like Jesus!

Because of Jesus!

Our next opportunity for you to serve alongside the staff of Rahab’s Rope will be Dec. 27, 2025 – Jan 10, 2026. For more information visit our website.
