CROSSROADS MISSION TRIP 2007
 June 16 and we are headed to Utah. We are helping the people of Utah. Specifically, the people of a Native American Reservation. Youth will be helping with painting, scraping, porch building, and whatever else there may be a need for us to do. We are very excited to begin this mission and help these people. We are looking forward to a great experience for the 24 youth and 5 adults involved. Please pray that they will be blessed with guiding grace as they face the challenges that this week will bring. Send the Lord's spirit of hope to their lives, that they may believe in themselves and know that they are needed in this world. Guide us, as we continue to grow in our appreciation of the many gifts of young people, in the ministry opportunities we offer to them, in the journey of faith we walk with them, in our shared mission as an community called to discipleship in the world. June 19 Barb reported that they had made the trip in fine shape. They did however, take a wrong turn and had a detour through Arizona. The school that they are staying in is very nice. They have met their work crews and worked the first day. Some of the work sites are a distance away with rough terrain. The crews are busy painting, roofing and building wheelchair ramps. They are still very excited and have had no problems yet. They do have very limited phone service. |
