- The Dream Center, Los Angeles, CA - August 2010 -
The Dream Center is a non-profit outreach dedicated to helping inner-city Los Angeles. Their ministry provides hope by meeting both tangible and spiritual needs. They provide food, clothing, shelter, life rehabilitation, education, and job training, Biblical training and much more through their 273 ministries and outreaches.
Our mission team of 12 went there for a week in August and helped them in many areas of their ministries. I will always remember what these eyes saw on skid row, and always thank God for our many blessings we sometimes take for granted. - Bogotá, Columbia - January 2010 -
In March 2010 we went to South America for the first time on a mission trip to Bogata, Columbia. We did a lot in the area of Ministry of Helps. We went and spoke at several public schools. We did some street ministry, including performing drama skits and handing out Gospel Tracts. Bogata is a city with a population of 9 million. We are planning on going back to South America in the near future to Peru!
- Kenya Africa - January 2010
-
Summary: In January 2010, we went to Kenya, Africa. We had raised $15,100.00! With that money we built a church in a small village that has no electricity or running water. We also fed the whole village rice and beans after the crusade for 5 straight days. We also purchased 50 new mattresses and linens for the bible school students of Bungoma Bible School as well as bought enough food for each student to eat for a whole year. This was our fifth time to go to Kenya on a mission trip.
