Mission Trip to Mississippi
Jul y27th- August 3rd
Jul y27th- August 3rd
We left Sunday the 27th from MBC around 8:30am and started our journey to Clarksdale, Mississippi, 4 adults and 12 youths. I along with others were very nervous about the trip. On our way to a church in Knoxville, TN, we went through 6 states, and saw lots of exciting things. The ride from MBC to Knoxville was 11hrs. Trying to find a comfortable position wasn't easy. We continue our journey to Mississippi from Knoxville the next morning, which took us 8hrs. The first night we all came together with other churches who were there, and worshiped and had a time of God's word. The message was thought provoking, that one of the youths from our group was in tears, during our prayer to as a group. That night I had the opportunity to encourage him, and pray with him along with another brother.
On Tuesday the 28th, we woke we travel to our work cite in Marks, Mississippi. The weather reached 113th that day, and it was 103 at the work place. Our job was to paint a house in 4 days. The woman whose house we painted was Mrs. Elisabeth.

We started to do remove old paint chips and put prime. Then I and 5 others went around the neighborhood, knocking on doors, and inviting people to come to BBS( Bible school for Kids) I was thankful no one fainted from the heat, and I didn't get a migraine.
There was one boy, Lesley who came to our work site, and it was so funny, he tried to tell us his name, but we could not understand him one bit. We had to ask him to spell his name, but with his southern accent, we still could not understand at first, but finally we got it.
The 3rd day was just as hot as the last day. We started painting the house and the heat was no helping one-bit lol, but we did not complain, and we worked together. Our lunch for the week consist of PJ bread, fruits, and chips. : )
Around 12:20pm a group of us headed towards BBS, and it was amazing to see the people who we invited show up. BBS was amazing, we got to get to know and have fun with the kids. After BBS, we walked back to our site, with none other then Lesley : ) As soon as we got back, we shared what happen that day and prayed, and got back to work painting the house.
Grace to you all
