SLY Mission Trip 2010 video

Tonight we got to see Kary's video of the mission trip. She had 2 hours of video documenting the whole trip and it was great! It was so nice to see all of the kids talking about their roles in the week and what they were getting from this trip. Of course it's hard to talk about this particular trip without thinking about Susan (see blog "Susan's House). Kary dedicated the video to Susan's memory. Also it was decided to take up a memorial for the church in Leadville in Susan's memory.

This trip was totally amazing! I've written about it from what the kids do but truly it is such a blessing to see and experience what we had that week this summer. The kids have transformed so much over the past few years and as Pastor Jim says even this past year the kids have grown. I've watched kids who used to have no friends sitting at lunch by themselves grow into small group leaders, energizer leaders, and so on.

We hope to have the video or parts of it on YouTube and possibly Godspace. Anyway, our fundraiser for the mission trips sponsored by the mission committee will be September 12 after church. What an amazing lunch it will be!
