One of the greatest things about going to school at LCC/s is the mission mindset. Even when I was a student, the school made it priority to take a week and serve.
Last week I had the priviledge to connect with over 100 students. (The ministry fair was to the whole school, but we had face to face conversations with over 100 students.) Our goals was to recruit and target 60 students for 2 mission trips. One will be over the school's spring break week and one will be during the scheduled week of evangelism.
The trip itself will be to "get ready" and "get going." We want to get ready with our facility and property. Many details need to be taken care of on our facility like paining the children's area, cleaning the facility, landscaping the lawn, and setting up new euipment and resoures. Get going really emphasizes the relational side of our ministry. We are recruiting teams to come and serve our neighborhoods. We will be contacting local apartment complexes to come and provide a portable VBS.
All in all we anticpate these trips being preview tests ou summer trips. As our infomation goes to individuals and churches, we pray that God will send people to help us serve our neighborhoods.
A special thanks needs to go to Todd Henry. He is my brother in law and works with World View Eyes at Lincoln Christian College. He will be leading one of our trips and helped us recruit many of the students heading on this trip.
scheduled weeks:
March 3-13 & March 31-April 7 of 2007
