Wow, this week has gone by fast. It looks like you all have done so much for Galilee Baptist Church. Awesome! I hope you all have a wonderful day today. Karen and Elizabeth, my prayer for you is to assimilate well back into the US culture when you come home. I know Jesus will show you what and how to minister to your own families, Church family, and community. I pray all will have a safe trip back to Charleston. Pam, you are God's light, shining so brightly leading last year's group and this year's group. Thank God for your leadership, and obedience to His call.

Hello Jesse, It's obvious that you and the rest of the Hibben team were able to accomplish everything you set out to do for Galilee and for the orphanage. I hope you thoroughly enjoy your last full day in Belize. Have a safe flight home, and keep in touch. Don't forget to e-mail me with all the information I accidently threw away! Hope to see you again in Belize.

It's always good to hear about you, but it was especially nice on the 21st to hear *from* the Hibben folks. We had a great time at Salkehatchie, and you were included in our prayers there as we wrapped up the week and you prepared for your trip. I look foward to sharing stories of what God has done when we're all back in Mount Pleasant.

Hey Jessee and Hibben group! It is wonderful to see all the work you all are doing at Galilee Baptist Church. I still praise God for allowing our paths to cross in June of last year. I wish our group were still there, but I hope we can serve together in the future.You all are in my thoughts and prayers. Please tell everyone hello at Galilee Baptist aka our home away from home. Love in Christ!

Hey guys! Hope all of you are doing well. I just wanted to make a shout out to you all, especially my Young Adult homies. I'm so proud of you guys and am praying that your presence is received with much love and compassion. Its quite odd, and at times a bit ironic, that on these mission trips you never get a complete grasp of how much you effect those that you are there to serve. What is even more astounding, is that those who you are in service to/with never completely understand the impact that they have made in your life. God has a personal relationship with each one of us through our personal relationships with one another. Each is unique, yet divine in nature. Thanks to all of you who have chosen to hear God's call and act upon it. "Do not withhold good from those who deserve it, when it is in your power to act. Do not say 'Come back later; I'll give it tomorrow- when you now have it with you." (Proverbs 3: 27-28) With much love, Sean
Jeremy, Elizabeth's fiance
June 22, 2011 4:34 PM
Elizabeth, I am so proud of you and what you do. I miss you so much! I hope you and the others are having fun, working hard, and enjoying the mission. You all are giving us a great example to follow. Love you! Jeremy
Lacey Lipe - Prayer Partner for Betty
June 22, 2011 3:14 PM
Hi Betty -and fellow Hibbenites! It makes me so proud to log on to this site and feel a part of such a wonderful, passionate and faithful community! You have made me a stronger person by knowing you! Betty, my parayers for before you even got on the plane were answered when I saw the first post: You arrived safely looking as perky as ever & with your "do" in place.. And you have food that is recognizable on an American Restaurant menu.. I don't have worry about my precious friend disappearing into her tiny frame, lol! ;) On a more serious note, my prayer life has gotten to be MUCH BETTER this week.. My "God-line" is busy at all hours! A lot is on my mind- friends, Dylan, but especially you and the tramendous leap of faith that you have taken. I know your infectious smile and warmth will stay with the people of Belize, just as it does with me. Dylan got the Bible that Elizabeth left for him. I took it to the meeting with me on Monday. He hugged it tightly to his chest and was so thankful! We got to spend some time together after the meeting, and the two of us said a prayer for "Miss Elizabeth" and for you... We are so fortunate to have both of you in our lives, as well as the entire church family. I know the Belizean nationals will be blessed by coming in contact with the wonderful Hibben team. Be safe throughout the remainder of the journey. You remain in my thoughts and prayers as I read and follow the progress. I look forward to seeing you and hearing the "Betty stories" (Because I KNOW you couldn't make it that far and it be COMPLETELY uneventful- we DO have THAT MUCH in common, hahahahahahahaha)! Hope ya got some practice in for Regan's Bible School- heh heh... SEE YOU SOON!!! I miss you!!! Love, Serenity & Prayers to All, Lacey (Dylan, too)

Hi Banks! We love reading about what y'all are doing this week! We continue to pray for health and an amazing experience for each of you on the team. We received Reid's first letter from camp today (Wed...took him Sun). It was short and to the point. " Dear mom, I don't like camp. It is not fun. I miss you. I want to come home. Love, Reid." So, please pray for your little brother! He is having a harder time adjusting to camp than you did! We can't wait to see you at the airport Saturday night. Enjoy the last few days of your journey! Love, mom

Hi Mom and Davis! Glad to know that you and the rest of the Hibben team made it safely to Belize. I've loved seeing the pictures and reading the journal updates, and can't wait for more throughout the week. You're all in my prayers every day, and I know that God's love is being shared through each of you. It must be great to be building relationships with the community there - especially some for the second year. Mom and Davis, I'm excited to hear all about it! Miss you and love you both!

Dear Friends, I wish you could send some of the rain our direction! The Lord is working through each of you, as you share your gifts and skills with those in need and those who are thirsting for God. Cyrene, Thanks for the cookies! I froze them so David would be able to have some when he returned from Salkehatchie. We are enjoying them now. I pray for restful sleep for each of you and continued opportunity to show the love you have to share through the Holy Spirit! Blessings to you all!

Mid-week at last. I know you are tired AND weary but take great joy in the work you are doing for the Lord. Isaiah 40:31 is the verse that comes to mind today: " But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shalll run, and not be weary;and they shall walk , and not faint." We are praying for you and covet your prayers in return. Love, Donna Lambert

I'm looking forward to hearing about the mission and seeing pictures with those you are ministering to. Cyrene, am anxious to hear about the handbells and how the children receive them. I know that God is there in all aspects of Hibben's mission.

Hello Jesse, I'm praying for you and the entire Hibben team. I pray that you spread love and sunshine to the people you serve today. I hope you're able to accomplish all that you intend in spite of the rain. I look forward to reading all about the day. By the way, I saw Timmy and Cory in the picture from yesterday's service. I can't wait to see you hard at work. You're a special young woman.

Good Morning, hope all is well in Belize - my daily devotional this morning was Genesis 17: 1 - 7 / Its touches on Abraham telling God that he will be the father of many nations & that he will make him fruitful - making personal sacrifice to spread Gods word is the best gift anyone can give. We are all proud of what you guys are doing & will keep you in our prayers daily. The high today in South Georgia is 100 degrees I assume its pretty hot in Belize - drink lots of water & stay hydrated. David, Debbie & Jacob - the Goodman's are rooting for big things to happen on this trip - be safe, be bold & God Bless your mission trip!

Hey Sally and Davis. Greetings to the rest of the Hibben family. Looks like you are off to a great start. All of you are in my prayers. I know that God is with you and his hand will be in all that you accomplish this week. Made it to NC, all is ok. Talked to Ellen, she was on her way to church. Davis, I am very proud of you and look forward to hearing of your experiences from this week. Sally, I know that people already remember your kind spirit and smile! Continued blessings for the rest of the week. Love you both.

Hi Banks! Praying that you are feeling well and growing this week in many ways. Please forgive me as I forgot to put your long pants in the suitcase!!! Hope you were able to borrow some for church today! Walker and I took Reid to Camp Sea Gull this morning. He looked a little nervous and unsure of staying there for a month. Wish you could have been there to make him more at ease! Walker says hi!!! We love you and know that this week will be awesome for you in Belize!

Hello Jesse. I will be praying for you and your new group this week. I hope that all of you will touch the lives of the orphans with love and that you have a wondrous week doing good things for the beautiful people of Belize. By the way, Jesse, I did something very Chris-like. I accidently tore out the back page of my journal with all your information on it so that I could wrap up my bubble gum. When I turned to get June's e-mail address this morning, I realized my BIG mistake. Fortunately, I remember her e-mail because she made a point of telling it to me. Unfortunately, all that is left of your information is 9464, oo.com, and ited Methodist Church. Please e-mail this information to me when you get home. My e-mail is [email protected]. Have a wonderful week. I wish I were there! And remember Eric.

Good Morning and Happy Father's Day to all the Daddy's on the trip. (And special blessings for all the Mama's) Colossians 3:23-24 says : Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men, since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward." (NIV) How wonderful it is to see that attitude of serving in each of you. Prayers and Hugs :) Donna & JR

Hi Jessee and The Hibben Group! I wish I was still there to work with you all this week. I know God will do wonderful things through you and bless your efforts. A verse that kept coming to my mind last week was Philippians 4:13 "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me." I pray that God will give each of you strength to accomplish His tasks. Jessee I am so proud of you for working 2 weeks in a row - you are a trooper!!! Be safe and give all the kids hugs for me.

The Spartanburg Salkehatchie group arrived safely home close to 5pm following a successful week of house restorations. You are in my prayers and trust that God gives each of you a new perspective of the work that He is doing beyond Mt. Pleasant. Your smiles are priceless! Happy early Father's Day to all of the Fathers in the group! Blessings from Your Sister in Christ!
