Mission Trip Dates

June 29-July 14, 2012

Friday, June 22, 2012

Prayers were answered! My friend, Catherine Borghoff was able to get us 50 empty egg cartons! Thank you Catherine, for bringing them all the way back from Wisconsin! These will be made into Mancala games for the African unit.

It is coming down to crunch time. Can you believe it is only one week away from our trip?  Many things still need to be done. We need to cross the T's and dot the I's. Poor Pam, our fearless leader, is inundated with things to do and does it all with a smile on her face. We are so blessed that she is able to keep us all focused  and headed for our common goal.

I feel a strong connection to our brothers and sisters in Poland. Bringing our Christian faith to the young people and showing them how to lead a life full of blessings from our Lord and Savior is beyond awesome. Teaching the English language is fun but secondary to bringing our Christian faith to them.

Piotr Gasiorowski is our leader in Poland and is the pastor of his church near Krakow. He is always there to guide us through the day and has a calming effect on everyone. This is his dream...bringing all of us, children and adults, deeper in our faith to God.

The countdown begins!........

Please pray for us as we pray for you!

  2. Oh, I wish I'd know you needed egg cartons, Judy. I have a bunch in my garage--we can't recycle styrofoam and I hate putting them in the landfill. If you need any more, let me know.
    I'll be praying you'll have a blessed trip.
