The point of the mission experience is to give the 56ers an opportunity to experience a mini-mission trip to serve and share God's love in and around their community. This year, we will have service projects that include: making sandwiches for a homeless shelter, volunteering at an elderly care home, helping get the summer programing ready for the Edinbrook church's Lil Kids ministries, and neighborhood cleanup.
56ers will need to bring with them the following things:
- clothes for the whole event (a change of clothes for Saturday, sleeping clothes for the night, maybe an extra shirt if it is a hot day.
- a bible and a notebook
- written permission allowing 56er to travel with us around the area as needed (to the park, street cleanup site and elderly care home) I will email a sample permission slip to parents.
- Sunscreen
- hang-out activities for more than one person (board games, etc)
- sleep stuff (pillow, sleeping bag, air mattress or foam pad, etc)
- a flexible attitude and a desire to learn
Please do NOT bring
- MP3 player/iPod /DS/ Gameboy or other personal gaming/music devices.
- messy prank material (i.e. silly string, stinky sprays, etc)
I am excited about this and I hope that lots of you are able to come. please let me know that you are coming by emailing me at livealifealive@gmail.com
If you have any questions, you can email me, or call me at 612.600.5845
