Whassup? What's the Mission?

From the halls of SCS to the streets of SkidRow in central LA...we have a big mission task ahead of us.

This past week, we have met one another and learned from each another. We have learned about the places and people we will get to see and meet. Some of us are a bit nervous....but we all are excited about what God is going to do through us while on SkidRow.

During our group training, we defined our purpose for this trip. The reason we are going to LA is to...
P ractice showing God's love
U nite
R each out to others
P ut aside personal fears
O ffer others God's gifts
S erve
E ncourage

Pray for God's protection as we are on the streets of LA. Pray that we will be able to show God's love to the people in this city. Pray that we will fulfill the purpose of our mission.
