The 2007 Youth Mission Trip to La Puente in the San Luis Valley of
Colorado was, as sponsor Randy McVey put it, “The best mission trip I’ve
been on.” Five youth and two adults
left directly from the commissioning service May 27 for this beautiful, but
extremely poor rural area. They worked to enclose a porch, making a bedroom in
the home of a grandmother caring for several grandchildren. They learned new construction skills,
conversed with the family, played basketball with them, lived their faith. Ask any of them about the work and fun they
had on this Youth Mission trip – Amy McVey, Brian Tarwater, Brevin Irvin,
Mitchell Watson, A.J. Dome. Special
thanks to Randy and Becky McVey for leading them!
