Youth Ministry at the Ridge
Junior/Senior High Youth
Soulfire Stuff
Plans
have been finalized for the summer mission trip! We will be
traveling to Cairo, Illinois to work with
Charles Dillon. During his trip down the Mississippi River last
summer, Cairo found a place in his heart. Many of the buildings
and homes are run down and need some lovin'. That's where we come
in! We will camp at a local campground from June 19-26...
work in Cairo during the day and worship with Charles and the town in
the evenings.
After working with Charles for
several years now, I've learned a few things. This trip will be
challenging. We will work hard and we MUST expect the unexpected.
We will learn things about ourselves and about the God we serve.
I'm praying that you will
want to be a part of the "Charles in Cairo" trip.
The challenges and new things you experience during the trip will become
important in helping you know God in a different way! GO
GOD!

God has asked us to step up
and be more involved with His work outside the church walls.
This year we will be doing more work in the Carthage community.
Projects that we will assist with are: the food pantry, coat
distribution, & nursing home visits.
Look for other ways we can love our neighbors.
Blue River Community
Harvest

Harvest always needs volunteers. Need a community service

back to find out when it will be rescheduled!
