Wow! Just Wow! Our mission team finished up their mission trip on Saturday evening when they returned to Chinook safely. To finish up the week the kids worked really hard on Thursday and Friday.
On Thursday the team went to Catholic Social Services Food Pantry to help move garden beds to the new facility. The team also finished preparing the new garden spaces for the upcoming summer plant season. After this the crew headed out to Holy Spirit Center to assist in revitalizing over grown trails and do minor maintenance around the retreat. The team worked tirelessly and continued to take on work without being asked.

On Friday the team helped the church where they were staying (Mountain City Church in Anchorage) to do painting jobs, yard work jobs and also help move furniture for a garage sale. The team was again able to accomplish more than the work site had planned to get done.

Overall, this team never ceased to amaze and showed Anchorage how a small community in Chinook can Love Like Jesus. The leaders are more than impressed with our kids and cannot wait to see what next year has in store. Over the summer we’ll be sharing highlights from the team members perspectives, so be on the lookout for those!
