Going to Alabama!

St. Andrews youth are off on a trip to assist in the post-tornado community clean up and reconstruction in Tuscaloosa, Alabama. We leave right after church.

We will be working alongside other teams from around the U.S. and our main work will be clearing communities of debris. We will also work in the church's food pantry, clothes drive, and assist in a community surveying project. The group who is hosting this trip and arranging for the work to be done is The Mission Academy.

Our theme of the week is from 1 John 4:7, "Beloved, let us love one another, for love is from God; and everyone who loves is born of God." Pray that such love is shared and experienced.
