Hundreds of Teenagers from Across America
It's been many months since I have posted, not because I don't have a long list of people to highlight, but because in the responsibilities of daily life, blogging doesn't usually make it to the top of my priority list!
Today, however, I wanted to let the world know about hundreds of selfless teenagers who have decided to forego summer vacation or lazing around by the pool and instead, to work and serve around the globe caring for orphans, building homes, improving schools, and most importantly, sharing the hope we have in Jesus! Even more amazing, these young people had to earn the money they needed in order GO and SERVE!
Throughout the last several decades, teenagers have been labeled with a negative reputation. But check out what they are capable of!
Nineteen students from Highview Baptist Church in Louisville, KY, are serving in the Philippines for 3 weeks (follow their blog). Over 500 students from across the nation are serving with Brio missions/Susie Mag in Guatemala for 2 weeks (learn about this trip and follow the blog entries). I also know of students currently in Haiti and heading to Honduras. Never doubt that a 15-year-old can impact this world in a huge way!
