Partners in the Journey 

 

Anticipation is building as the senior high youth group prepares for their service-learning opportunity in Puerto Rico. This week spent intentionally outside of their comfort zones is designed to offer insight into diverse ways of life and invite embodied expressions of love for one another. From purchasing Christmas trees and covering shifts at the tree lot, to attending the dinner and documentary on Puerto Rican history and governance, to commissioning the students in May, many of you have already demonstrated faithful partnership and encouragement for these incredible young people! Thank you for this ongoing support! 

 

From July 17-23, you can remain engaged as partners in the journey through prayer for our students, leaders, and the friends we’ll make along the way. Updates will be shared on Facebook and Instagram for our community as well. Then, on September 20, we’re lucky to be led in worship by our teens for Youth Sunday, where they will share their stories and experiences in Puerto Rico! Excited to witness the growth and connections that will continue this summer! 

In peace,
