Reflections from ………Cairo
Mission 2008 The mission trip was my first and it was really fun! I enjoyed helping out. Before the first day even started I said it felt good knowing that I’m here to help. This trip I know I didn’t just go on just because I wanted to, but because it was a calling from God. I enjoyed helping out with Kids Club and painting the house. Meeting new people from our church and all the others was a really cool experience too. Also, growing closer to everyone made me realize that our St. Julie Youth Group is not just a bunch of teens hanging out, but one big family that you can count on and rely on to be there when you’re down and to have your back when you’re not. This trip has also brought me MUCH closer to God. The prayer walk was one of my favorite things. I shared a lot of my beliefs on it and I’ll share some now. One of my beliefs is that we were all put here on this earth for a purpose and when God knows that we know that we fulfilled that purpose then He will call us home to our true Home in Heaven. Another thing that I thought about was we hear of our make-believe powers like lasers shooting from our eyes or walking through walls, but God can do anything. He has powers that we can’t ever imagine about and yet He allows us to do his work for Him! I don’t know about you but I feel honored to be given His trust. Over all, I loved this mission trip with a passion. I’m definitely going on next year’s mission trip. And remember The Lord Loves You!! By Adam Marshall
