Just in case I don't post as much as I usually do.. I'm going on a Mission Trip with most of these 16 people + 20 more. I'm pretty sure I'm going to be fun. If you are the praying kind… We'll need it.
We will be heading to Joplin Missouri for 6 days.. Leaving technology behind.. (I'm not, but they are..) and working on being a light for Jesus.
Extreme Home Makeover House.. Day 4
Friday's To Do..
I don't know if I mention it.. but I'm a youth leader. In August my Youth Group is going to Joplin to serve the people there. I went down there last week to meet with our sister church and talk to them about how we can serve the community. Here's my day in pictures.
This is New Creation Church in Joplin Missouri.
This church serves 3 hot meals to ANYONE who walks in to the building.
They also provide shelter for over 75 people each night.
The church's pantry… where all the donated food goes.
If a family comes in and needs diapers… they have them.
Notes of thanks and encouragement.
To do list… (I love to do lists..) This one says:
Someone made this cross out of rubble.
Graffiti..
Not so good graffiti.
New telephone poles.
In front of Joplin High School.
Chainsaw carvers.. check out the phone pole that was ripped in half.
Rubble..
Can you see the people on top of the houses?
It's like someone took out a wall and you can see their kitchen and family room.
Trees..
Tree.
A free clinic in front of Walgreens.
