Youth Mission Trip 2004
Over 40 youth and adults traveled to Lynchburg, VA for a "different" kind of Summer Camp. They were able to experience missions first-hand on a very personal level. Sure there was the fun and games, worship and quiet time, drama and praise, but they were also involved in a work project. During the five days of camp they were able to paint the outside of a home, clean up the yard and show God's love first hand to residents of Lynchburg.

Deep Impact Honduras
Our team of 10 left early in the morning of June 15th for the country of Honduras. During their 8 days they participated in different areas of service. For some it was the first time to travel out of the country. While others had participated in this mission effort before. But for everyone it was an experience they will most likely remember for a long time. While in Honduras the teams participated in Prayer-walking and door-to-door Evangelism; Construction and Painting; Back yard Bible Clubs; Music and Clowning. Was language a problem? According to one volunteer, a smile and a hug are understood anywhere.
