Thank you Phil Choate!

Global Outreach — Wed, 26 May 2010 16:46:58 +0000

Since his first taste of Missions on the first Shoreline trip to Pixabaj, Guatemala in December of 2007, Phil Choate has been actively involved with missions work here at Shoreline. He has helped form our Missions Board and served faithfully as the Missions leader up to this week. Phil has now stepped down from directing the Missions Board onto other ventures God has called him to.

Phil will still be engaged in other ministries here and plans to be part of Mission Teams to Guatemala and Mexico in the future. Thanks for a job well done Phil! We love you and look forward to serving with you as God calls us to spread the Light of Jesus around the world.

Guatemala Under Construction

Global Outreach — Thu, 13 May 2010 17:42:15 +0000

This just in: Shoreline is going to assist the construction of a new road at the school in Pixabaj Guatemala. In the third world building a new road is a massive undertaking of planning, labor and stress. Without the capabilities we enjoy here in the US, workers must be creative, flexible and have great stamina. Having a good road up to the school will change everything in terms of what can be supplied, how to plan expansion and exploring God’s vision for the future of Pixabaj and villages like it.

Missions Board growing

The Shoreline Missions Board has a new member, Caroline Ravan. Caroline went on the trip before last to Pixabaj Guatemala and fell in love with Missions! We welcome her and look forward to how God is going to use her in the future of Missions at Shoreline.

Stay Tuned!

Missions Trip to Guatemala | Feb 27 – Mar 9

Guatemala here we come! Missions Board Member John Houseman is leading a team of Shoreliners into Guatemala to continue the work on the Mayan school in the highland village of Pixabaj. Pastor Dennis will assist John and five other team members and there is room for a few more. This will be the sixth trip from Shoreline to Pixabaj, teams working with both the buildings and teaching in the Mayan children’s classrooms. The trip leaves February 27 and returns March 9, 2010.

The Mayan people are an oppressed population and extremely poor. The only chance the young people have to succeed is to acquire an education and learn Spanish. The school in Pixabaj is a Christian setting where these children learn Spanish, English, the 3 “Rs” and all about the love of Jesus. Shoreline partners with Outpost Ministries Director Carlos Nevarez in supporting the work God has led him to do in Guatemala. For more information contact John or Pastor Dennis

Missions update

For all who gave to fill the container bound for the Ivory Coast we say blessing and thank you. It’s finally there! When sending goods in a container to Africa the perils and obstacles are incredible as we learned on our very steep learning curve. Our mission coordinator, Patience Ogele is now there and is taking pictures to send back showing how the container and it’s contents are being used in her husbands church. Patience will live there from here on out, having finished her time of study in the US. We are excited about the goals for Missions in 2010 and will keep you posted. In the works are: trips to Guatemala, Mexico, Mission classes and training, a grand fundraising event and more! If you’re interested in Missions contact Pastor Dennis or Coordinator Phil Choate.

Guatemala Team on track

Mens — Mon, 10 Nov 2008 18:49:13 +0000

A scant three weeks away, the Guatemala trip is shaping up nicely. A team of eleven folks have attended missions classes, been briefed and met several times in preparation. In the village of Pixabaj they will continue to finish the construction on the school for Mayan children founded by Outpost Ministries director Carlos Nevarez and scout out the needs for the local church to receive support from future teams.

The container in back of Shoreline filled with donated goods headed towards a church in Ivory Coast will depart the premises in five days to be staged in Oakland before heading over sees. A team will meet up with the container next year to distribute goods, do construction on the church and train local Pastors. The full itinerary and mission goal are still in development; stay tuned for more info.
