Mississippi Mission Days 2 and 3

Reading Time: 2 minutes

Some of the crazies

Parker and Will

Cleaning up trash

Taking a break

Birdhouse builders

Days 2 and 3 consisted of cleaning up 2 pretty overgrown baseball parks and then helping run a day camp for elementary age students. Parker and Will did an amazing job at both. Unfortunately, Parker was a bit under the weather today and didn’t get participate as much as he would have liked. We’re praying for a better physical day tomorrow.

I got to share with the group tonight and I talked about Matthew 9:35-38. That’s a great passage about how Jesus sees the crowd as helpless and we all agree that He does. But what blows my mind is the fact that He doesn’t fix them on His own. Instead, He prays that God would raise us up to go get the harvest. I hope He finds us all faithful to that call.
