MOSAIC is coming!

MOSAIC, the summer mission camp hosted by our church in Long Beach starts next week. We have been busy preparing for the camp. I have been helping plan worship services, paint banners, supervise our students as they ready the church building, and playing on the new computer making videos and slideshows for worship. It's been fun but we are tired already! Ben is the camp's director and has been doing everything from coordinating volunteers to visiting worksites to answering the same questions over and over that I would not have the patience to do.

We will have 80 students living at the church next week. During the day they will go out into the Long Beach community to do yardwork, house repairs, and other such projects. Many of them are connected with Hurricane Katrina. After a hard days' work, the students will come together for worship each night at our church.

Each morning, the students will be given fifteen minutes to use as quiet time with God, and a devotional reading guide. I will attempt to post these guides each day so that you also may read and pray along with us. Thanks for checking this blog and remembering the work we do in Long Beach.
