2023 Mission Trip - Covington, GA

Day Six: we started the day by weeding the playground at the church, which brought us to lunchtime.  After that, we finished painting the signs for a game night at the church and did a little canvassing.  Finally, we went to their lent service and finished the night with a target run. 

 Day Five: This morning, we started our day by doing crafts with people who have special needs, and we sang Praise God From Who All Blessings Flow  at their special service for them.  After that, we went back to painting our signs for the church and did more canvassing and visits.  Finally, we went to one of the host family's houses, and we had burgers made by Matthew and fished.  

 Day Four: We got to the church and did a lot of church work.  We folded pamphlets and started painting the signs for their game night.  Then we all came back together, and we had lunch.  After that, we did new mover and prospect visits.  To finish the day, we went to eat at Shane's Rib Shack and frolicked around Covington Town Square where there have been popular shows like The Vampire Diaries were filmed.  

 Day Three: We started the day by going to bible study and church, and after that, we had lunch provided by one of the ladies from the church.  After that, we went to New Movers Canvassing and then to Pastor Scharff's house for grilled food, kickball, bags, and basketball.  

 Day Two:  We started the day early by delivering the grocery bags to over 650 homes in the Covington area, which we are going to pick up next Saturday and deliver to the local homeless shelter.  After that we had lunch and than the church Vicor took us on a hike up stone mountain.  Following the about 2.5 mile hike he took us to Zaxby's, a southern fried chicken restaurant.  

  Day One:   We started at school and, from there, made our way to MSP, where we flew to Chicago.  After catching a quick lunch of pizza and salads, we made our way to Atlanta, where we met Pastor Scharff.  Then he took us to the church, where we met their youth group and assembled our grocery bags for the food drive with the youth group and had pizza with them.  Finally, we called it a night and then went to our host families.
