Introduction to 2009 Sr. High Mission Trip

Hello all!

After being commissioned at the 11:00 service on Sunday June 28, the Sr. High Group and Sponsors will leave on the Sr. High Mission Trip at 3:00 pm to head to Bridge City, TX. Bridge City is at the border between Texas and Louisiana, close to the Gulf. (In the middle of the map, north of the Sabine Lake.) It is by Port Arthur and Beaumont. The drive will take a little more than 2 hours. Even though this mission trip is closer than the past two mission trips, we felt we needed to go where the need was greatest-Ike recovery. Many of us experienced the effects of Ike first hand and really wanted to help the people who still needed lots of help to rebuild their homes. 80% of the people in Bridge City had their homes flooded.

We will return to WPC on Saturday July 4 at about 11:00 am.Thank you very much for your prayers and support.

Thanks for reading!
