CTCYM Assignments

Glen Rose Mission-trippers,
For four years we've been going with Davis Memorial UMC on mission trip, but this year we aren't. The way they assign leadership it just didn't work out.
I know, we've grown up with them.
They're like our own youth group.
We feel comfortable around them.
We like them a lot.
Believe me, I'm sad we won't be going with them this year.

But with that said, let's remember something. The reason we go on mission trip isn't to be with them. We go for a greater purpose, to serve the Lord. The heart-filled moments that we share with them aren't a result of just our friendships, but the presence of the Holy Spirit within them.
And God doesn't go away. In fact, this year we'll have the opportunity to see God in new people, in new places and new ways that we've never seen before. So, as weird as it will be not seeing our old friends when we get to the living center, remember and have faith that God will be there.
