St. David’s Youth Mission Trip 2011
The Youth Group had a tremendously successful trip to Scranton, PA June 18-25. There were some 300 students and leaders from all across the country including several congregations from Illinois. They stayed at Marywood University, a catholic university that supplied dorm rooms, a lot of room for outdoor activities, and a fantastic cafeteria!
This year's theme was "Connect," taken from John 15:5, "I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in me, and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing."
Monday through Friday they worked on different houses doing a variety of jobs including painting, building wheelchair ramps, building new steps and porches, roofing, and even sealing driveways! As part of an afternoon off they took a tour of a coal mine.
