2011 Choctaw Mission Trip
|
We support, Juan, our Compassion International child from
Ecuador, and participate in Operation Christmas Child by
shopping together and filling 30-50 shoeboxes each year.
This past July, our middle school youth and high school
student leaders participated in “MMM… Spiritually Delicious”
a local mission week based on Matthew 25. During our
experience, we cooked meals for the Justice for Our
Neighbors ministry and the Ronald McDonald House, led a
“splash day” for our children’s ministries, and helped some
of our neighbors with home repairs, yard work and painting.
Our week was so spiritually motivating that we are planning
another one for this summer!
We are excitedly planning a visit in March of the Choctaw
Indian youth from John Memorial UMC in Carthage, MS, who we
have been training to lead and who will unite with our
mission team to plan Vacation Bible School for 2011
together!
In July, after a spiritual retreat at Panama City Beach, our
combined Choctaw youth and Tuskawilla youth mission team
will return to Carthage to lead Vacation Bible School with
the Choctaw children at John Memorial. This will be our 14th
year to return in ministry at the Choctaw Reservation.
Come serve with us!
