Assumptions

I disagree with the one that says that We cannot truly serve those we do not know and love.
I think we can serve people even if we don't know them if we have the initiative to do it and they're willing to listen. I know that if we know and love the person it would be a lot easier but i think even without those things we can still serve.

I strongly agree with the 1st assumption that basically says that doing missions is showing who God is and how a group of people that obeys God looks like to other people. I agree with this because i think it's extremely important to act like followers of God and if we don't do this the people in Mancora would'nt listen to us and apreciate what we do because we wouldn't be an example.

I completaly agree with the assuption that says:"Our mission trips usually assume we have something to offer the churches and communities we visit, but there is much to learn from them as well". I think a lot of times we think that since we are the ones going there, we're the ones teaching or showing stuff to them so we don't pay atention to all the stuff we can learn from them. I think that what we need to do is don't think about ourselfs being better or bigger than them but to interact get to know them so that we can also learn a lot from the people in Mancora.

Also I strongly agree with the second assumption that says that we must not go to this trip to do something we aren’t already doing in here. We need to follow the word of God serving and sharing the gospel to people and if we're not already doing this it's most likely that we will not do it in Mancora either. What we need to do is starting to share the gospel here in panama(if you're not already doing it) so that we can do it even beter in Mancora.
