Once more, we are going to serve others “right in our
own backyard”. Our mission trip will again take us to
Lakewood Township where cleanup efforts are still
woefully inadequate. Sandy had a terrible impact on
that area and we want to do something about it. The
only thing is that it costs money to help others. Just
like last year, each youth needs $289 just to get to
Lakewood. That doesn’t include any spending money
– just the mission trip cost. So please help us pay for
our trip by supporting our fundraisers. We really
appreciate all our church family does for us. We
realize we wouldn’t be able to make such a difference
if it wasn’t for you. Thanks.

Have this attitude in yourselves which was also in Christ Jesus, who, as He already existed in the form of God, did not consider equality with God something to be grasped, but emptied Himself by taking the form of a bond-servant and being born in the likeness of men. And being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself by becoming obedient to the point of death: death on a cross. — Philippians 2:5-8 (NASV)
