Mission Trip

I had to blog a little about the trip, and take a few minutes to reflect. We has an amazing time in West Bend, Wisconsin. Amber and I took four teenagers; and left on a Saturday evening. Upon getting to the church we were staying with, we were able to meet the other groups and get to kno them. We spent time Saturday evening in training and we learned a new evangelizing way through the evangelizing cube. 

On Sunday, we worshipped and had a meal with the church family. Then we packed up supplies and headed out to a park so that we could invest in the community. That afternoon, we spent three hours doing a block party. We built lots of relationships and through registration we collected a lot of contacts for the church plant. 

Monday through Wednesday, we did work projects. We spent time clearing the woods, laying mulch down for paths, painting and removing weeds. The city's officials were impressed with our group, and we got done way more than they thought. It was hard work, but we made an impact! 

Throughout the week, the teens did a great job of making friends and spending time together. Trey Turner did a great job of training us in the morning and evenings. His stories were great and learned that we can share our story and Bible stories with others. The teens grew from the trip and they bonded even closer in their relationships.
