Why do YOU "Sun City?"
"I first became Christian about eight months ago, and was Jewish before that. Because I didn't know Christ and had different beliefs, my friends -- Kyle and Caleb -- asked me questions of what it was like to be Jewish. In return, I would ask them about Christ. I started to notice an empty feeling inside of me. My friends started bringing me to their church, and I started to feel more whole. When I finally became Christian, I realized that no one can bring you to Christ, but only create opportunities. You have to accept Christ into your heart by yourself. That's why I want to go to México: so I can create opportunities for others to bring Christ into their hearts." -- Nick (WA)

What's Your Story?
If you have been on a mission trip, then you know that lots of things can happen while on the mission field. For example, maybe God performed miracles through you and your team, or maybe something touched your life and changed you forever. Of course, who can forget the funny and even embarrassing stories that everyone loves to hear about. Perhaps there's just something you would like to share with us. Email your stories to staff@suncitymissions.com. We can't wait to hear from YOU!

Ministry in Progress -- Be in Prayer!
The first three trips of the 2006 season started June 23rd! Here are a couple things to pray for. Add to this list where you feel directed, and help us pray for these short-term missionary activities.

UNITY: "By this all men will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another" (John 13:35 NIV).

PROTECTION: "Be self-controlled and alert. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour. Resist him, standing firm in the faith, because you know that your brothers throughout the world are undergoing the same kind of sufferings" (1 Peter 5:8 NIV).

DIRECTION: "By day the LORD went ahead of them in a pillar of cloud to guide them on their way and by night in a pillar of fire to give them light, so that they could travel by day or night" (Exodus 13:21 NIV).
