With school right around the corner the mission trip feels like a lifetime ago, but these trips have a lifetime impact! Just check out what Mission member Lexi has to say about her first trip. “I had an amazing experience on the mission trip, but out of the worksites, my favorite was cutting down trees and loading the trailers. This was my favorite because we knocked out 1 weeks worth of work in 6 hours. It felt pretty good to have the house keeping there know they had extra time for themselves. My absolute favorite extra activity was going to the beach. Even though it was a little bit windy, (it wasn’t little) I had the best time with two of my best friends Laura and Rachel. We took pictures and got in the water up to our jeans. I would say what was the most impactful for me, but I have two ideas that I just can’t pick between. This first one was also during the tree cutting. Some of the residents of the teen rehab came outside and asked to play basketball with us. They immediately were so comfortable with us, chatting, teasing, and laughing. Just honestly having a great time. I think it was impactful because I got to fully understand what they had gone through to be at that point in their life and that they were trying their best to change and it was working. It reminded me of how great Gods love is for everyone and that he watches over all of us. The second one was 100% the feet washing. Also Our leaders did a great job keeping us busy for a week and returned the favor by doing this. I loved how each and every leader had a very heartfelt and honest prayer for me. It definitely changed how I think, act, and live.
The best part, I grew so much closer to Jesus.”
