Preparing for Mission ...


I’ve spent months preparing myself, our youth leaders and our youth for this trip. I’ve created the packing lists for everything we think we may need... Planned each activity and collected all our many forms and releases. We have our lists, our coolers...work gloves -- Vans are rented and stops are planned.


But now... to prepare our hearts and minds to be open to the experience and to allow God's Love and plan for us next week to fill our hearts... that is our most important step...


Please keep our IMPACT youth mission trip in your prayers in the the next week as the kids pack up their belongings (hopefully not TOO many!) and say their tearful goodbyes. Pray for their patience as they hand over cell phones and all the distractions and open up themselves to share and serve---but most importantly experience God's Love for them and others through them.


Follow our trip as we travel July 7-14~ we will post pictures and try to give you a "snapshot" of each day as we grow in faith, love and service...


Peace... Kristin Tetzke
