It was a great experience, we all survived the 22 hour car ride in a 15 passenger van and had great opportunities to serve the Sovereign Grace
Church there, Lakeview Christian Center. We did tons of yard work to clean up properties for people who called the church asking for help. Everyone was very grateful for the help we gave and it was amazing to see how simply serving the community in this way has opened opportunities for the church to share the gospel and connect with their neighbors. I've done community service before but I found this to be one of the most fruitful experiences I've ever had. Look for a slideshow of pictures that will on the side of this page soon. Also this week a group of students from Drexel are down at a conference in Panama City Beach, FL. Please pray for them, here's how:
…for traveling safety (
…for boldness in sharing God's Word with others
…for an openness to what God has for us to learn and to the ways He wants us to grow
…for the Holy Spirit's work upon those we will encounter
…that those planning and leading the trip would be following God's heart for the trip
…that we would use the week to grow us in community and fellowship
