Mission Trips

When I was 16 years old, our youth group from Broken Arrow, Oklahoma took our summer mission trip to Apple Valley, Minnesota. This was one of our mission points as a congregation.

We knocked doors, set up studies, encouraged the local congregation and heard five nights of excellent lessons from Walter Buchanan who was a visiting evangelist from Texas.

That was a special week in my life.

Many of us have memories of mission trips that we took that impacted our mission to reach out to a lost world.

I am thankful for our young people and sponsors who traveled to the New Orleans area to minter last week.

I know they were a blessing for a people searching for hope in a hard hit part of the country.
