NorthBay Middle School Week
In early July, 10 of us went to NorthBay Adventure on the Chesapeake Bay. It was a hot week with non-stop music, excitement, and general craziness. What happens when you pile up zip-lines, whip-cream, sailing, and banana chasing? Check it out the video. Throughout the week we were challenged to believe in the good work that God as accomplished in Christ and to dare to live a life of faith as we follow Jesus. Want to see life to the fullest? Check out all the week’s videos.
ASP in Kentucky
From July 10-16, 33 of us drove to Warfield, KY for a week with Appalachia Service Project. At three work sites we worked on roofs, floors, insulation, tiling, stairways, water lines, and hearts. We had so much fun with sawzalls, speed squares, and each other as we lived a simple life of service and ministry. God was good and worked on us too and we’ve all come home freshly built for the things God is calling us to. Special thanks to our awesome adult leaders who discovered that a touch of heaven can be had in overalls and safety glasses. And very fine work by everybody at “Nassau Tool & Equipment.”
Beyond Malibu
Far away in the Coast Mountains of B.C., 14 of us from Nassau got lost in the alpine wilds of granite and glaciers. And yet, led by the Holy Spirit, Jesus Christ, and Nassau Intern Travis Niles, we safely summited Mount Albert and made it back home again. Hopefully you’ve seen some pictures, seen the glow in a hiker’s eyes, and perhaps have been inspired to take a step beyond your ordinary routine. In grace and community we sang on the summit, prayed in the shadows, and basked in the rising of the son. And then we came home exhausted and slept.
