The 2018 Youth Mission: July 7-14
Nicholas County, Tennessee Theme: Called To Action (Isaiah 6:8) Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying, ‘Whom shall I send, and who will go for us?’ And I said, ‘Here am I; send me!’ On Sunday, July 1, twenty-five youth will be commissioned during the 10:00 a.m. worship service. They join adult sponsors Nathanial Brower, Susan Day, Bill Deemer, Jen DeJong, Tami Ireland, Anna Koeppel, Amanda Kurmann, Dave Leonatti and Mary Ray led by Rev. Trajan McGill (Associate Pastor for Parish Life) on a mission to Nicholas County, West Virginia sponsored by the Appalachia Service Project. They will be staying at St. Luke’s United Methodist Church and go out into the county each day to do the work of home repair.
This is our third adventure with ASP. Our theme is Called to Action (Isaiah 6:8). Throughout the week, crews of 5 youth and two adults will be assigned a painting, drywall, roofing, or construction project on a specific home. Our youth will partner with youth groups from two other churches. The WPC youth are grateful for the congregation’s continued support and prayers and look forward to leading worship at both services on Sunday, July 15. |
