The wheels on the BUS

The VZ family was one that got our hearts searching for what we were to do to assist in the orphan crisis. Mission 1:27 was organized as a result of much prayer desiring Gods Will in this matter. We recently had the priviledge of giving, a much needed, 8 passenger vehicle to this special family. The next step for them may be a BUS if God continues to bless their family with the ability to care for His special children! We are so thankful that God made it clear through His Holy Spirits leading, that THIS vehicle was meant for THIS family. Thank you to those donors who have made Mission 1:27 able to bless this family through their adoption journey. Check out the VanderZwaag story: http://www.vanderzwaagfamily.blogspot.com/
If you feel God's prompting to help this family or another please contact us at: toniajbk@hotmail.com or send donations to: Mission 1:27, 300 S. State Street, Suite 10, Zeeland, MI 49464.

Blessed to be a Blessing

Mission 1:27 is so thankful to God for His infinite wisdom and overwhelming blessings. Mission 1:27 has been so blessed this year with a donor who has used his resources in a continuous effort to support Gods work. In order to help families financially we need fundraisers. To get our fund started this fall, a businessman offered his scrap metal. We have since filled several large Padnos containers on a couple of different occasions and been able to help the two families featured in our links. Praise God for scrap metal! Who knew? God even uses scrap metal in His plan to help the orphan. This just shows how we ALL have been blessed to be a blessing. We just have to have our hearts daily connected to the One from whom all BLESSINGS flow. I want to sincerely thank this donor and hope his faithful sharing of Gods blessings will encourage you in your walk on this NARROW path.

2011 Starts With a Boom!

Mission 1:27 has started off the new year with a few exciting things. I have seen the Holy Spirit at work and have felt so covered in prayer by my faithful warrior friends. Thank you and God bless each one:).

Psalm 7

O Lord my God, I take refuge in you;
save and deliver me from all who pursue me,
or they will tear me like a lion
and rip me to pieces with no one to rescue me.
O Lord my God, if I have done this
and there is guilt on my hands-
if I have done evil to him who is a at peace with me
or without cause have robbed my foe-
then let my enemy pursue and overtake me;
let him trample my life to the ground
and make me sleep in the dust.
Arise, O Lord, in your anger;
rise up against the rage of my enemies.
Awake, my God; decree justice.
Let the assembled peoples gather around you.
Rule over them from on high;
let the Lord judge the peoples.
Judge me, O Lord, according to my righteousness,
according to my integrity, O Most High.
O righteous God,
who searches minds and hearts,
bring to an end the violence of the wicked
and make the righteous secure.
My shield is God Most High,
who saves the upright in heart.
God is a righteous judge,
a God who expresses his wrath every day.
If he does not relent,
he will sharpen his sword,
he will bend and string his bow.
He has prepared his deadly weapons;
he makes ready his flaming arrows.
He who is pregnant with evil
and conceives trouble gives birth to disillusionment.
He who digs a hole and scoops it out
falls into the pit he has made.
The trouble he causes recoils on himself;
his violence comes down on his own head.
I will give thanks to the Lord because of His righteousness
and will sing praise to the name of the Lord Most High.
