Welcome!I started up Go! - A Mission Site after my mission's trip to Australia. I realized on my trip how crucial it was to communicate what was going on in the mission field to help those at home know how to best pray for you. I really enjoyed making the Australia site, and as I have felt the Lord's leading, I felt it was important to design a site that would let people know exactly how to pray for me while I'm following the leading of the Lord. While thinking of names, the traditional "mission" verse, Matthew 28:19 came to mind. In the NIV, the verse says "Therefore, go and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit." I really like this verse, especially the word "go." The word used in the original manuscript is πορεύομαι (poreuomai) which means literally or figuratively to travel, to make or to take a journey, or to traverse. Taking the meaning of the word literally, it is exactly what I do when I go on my mission trips, I make a journey to draw people to God. The figurative meaning on the other hand represents the figurative journey of growing closer to God throughout my life. Both meanings of the word apply to my life which makes the word "go" the perfect for the name of this site. I have recently redone the entire layout. I hope you enjoy the changes and they aren't too difficult for you. The biggest change is the link bar at the top of the page. Now in order to visit the various web pages I've made about each trip the Lord has led me on, you have to click on the small star. To the left you will find links to the other pages that make up this web site. For those of you a bit challenged in geography (or in case my design went bad) there are basic text links at the bottom of each page. Thank you so much for stopping by, I hope this site will encourage you in your own walk with the Lord and maybe encourage you to take a step out and reach out to your world. Have a super-fantastic day!
