Powerful


Brian and Patrick spent Sunday at the Grand Canyon.  After several days of mission work, they were ready for a break.  This is the photo Brian sent at the end of their day.  Amazing. 

Brian said this trip has been so powerful for him, more so than the mission trips to Mississippi the last two summers.  The damage from Katrina was every where.  It was clear what work needed to be done and there was a sense of accomplishment at the end of every day. 

In New Mexico, their work focuses on meeting the needs of the poor and the elderly.  The needs are equally as great, just subtle. 

Whether they are hanging drywall in Mississippi or setting up classrooms for a new school on an indian reservation, they have made a difference in the lives of those in need.  Pretty powerful experiences.
