Break my heart for what breaks yours...

Late last night we arrived home from our mission trip to Los Angeles. It went really well doing homeless ministry and VBS and we all had a good time. We had five days of ministry and about four days of traveling. On the first day of ministry we did a food drive for a Christian organization and on the other four days we did Vacation Bible School and just got to know the homeless people through Urban Connection, a mission organization. We got to serve coffee in the morning, pass out donuts on the street, eat in homeless shelters, learn people's stories, and see life through different eyes. We also got to visit different churches and go to the ocean (which was a blast!) and Hollywood. It was really cool meeting other Christians, Christians who were so different from you. Yet we all serve the same God, despite if we're homeless, if we have been arrested, or our past and even the present. It's great! If you have questions, just call or ask!
