The Crossons Call
Our Mission Statement
Our mission is to keep the Lord at the center of all that we do and continue serving where and how the Lord directs us. We don’t feel the desire to ever turn back to a life not serving full time. But as we have witnessed it's not our plan we are looking to.
Little Lambs is in a great need of help in all areas - after Covid hit and construction has progressed, the needs are many. This ministry is growing and so here is what we will be doing in the next year serving alongside them!
Martin will be really focusing on the social media aspect spreading the word of what already exist and where this mission is going. We know the importance of connecting through social media to spread the good news and the amazing things the Lord is building up In Guatemala. He will also be helping with projects around the mission home and helping organize Missions trips to the facility. One of Martins Goals is to create a ministry and make efforts towards outreach through social media!
Amber, will be Working on the administrative areas of this of this ministry. There is so much that goes into making things run smoothly and she has worked as Administrator in her current job. She will also be working with the children on their homeschooling and curating activities such as life skills and Physical education for the children. She will also be assisting in helping with Teams that visit the Mission home.
We are committed to see the Lords will and purpose for us while in Guatemala and we know that he alone will see it through. We believe the Lord has brought us here to grow the team here and build up the ministry within the orphanage. We know our works here are dead without faith, we want our actions here to uplift him and bring glory to the kingdom of heaven in all that we do.
We truly believe we are just the beginning of what God is going to do in this ministry, in this year alone. This is a never-ending mission that God willing will continue long after we're gone.
Here is a letter of recommendation from the director of Little Lambs International Ryan Ruotsala
​
Our Mission
Within our mission is the ministry of Little Lambs International, which is a never ending mission of caring for the children brought to their orphanage and building a "new" city in Guatemala that will overflow into the cities until lives are transformed. we are going to serve along side this ministry and hopes to expand what's already being done. Our mission is to continue saying Yes! Yes to serving God, whatever that looks like for this year and for the rest of our lives. Some of the aspects of serving at Little Lambs International will be in administrative and social connections. For so long its been established buildings and foundations of the orphanage. Our mission is to not be the only ones to come along and serve. We feel that God is going to bring people through to further this mission through the connections and outreach we begin to establish throughout this journey.
Our Vision
The vision we have is to begin establishing connections through churches and people all over the world that come in support of the work that's being done in Guatemala. We see a future of people rising up and laying down the plans they had for their lives and use their gifts to fill this ministry with Love and Hope. We see a city in the hills of Jalapa Guatemala, where a school is built bringing higher education to the next generation of Guatemala. Children being raised up in a Christian home, experiencing Love and Morals. A generation of kids that will go out and continue the cycle of serving and spreading the good news of Christ. We see a city of people from all over the world serving in this ministry that will overflow and magnify the kingdom of God.
Our Hope
Is when people see our lives that they see God in every aspect. Our hope is to never return to the desires we have for our life. We hope that when people hear our story and continue on this journey with us that they are encouraged to be the hands and feet of Jesus. Our hope is in the plans that Jesus has for us and that whatever it is may they glorify him long after we're gone. We feel that God will bring a group of people that belong here and are called to serve at little lambs.
