FBC Duncanville, TX Acteens - March 15-20

Our next mission team was a fantastic group of ladies and young ladies known as Acteens from First Baptist Church in Duncanville, TX. These ladies drove nearly 1,000 miles over two days to get here and STILL had great attitudes and servants hearts once they arrived. This was their 2nd trip to Calvary Campus and we were glad to have them back.
During the week they hosted a VBS for senior adults at the Blackey Senior Adult Center in the mornings, hosted an after-school Kid's Club in the afternoons on Campus, and still found time to paint fence, build two new picnic tables, and do lots of clean-up around the Campus. On Wednesday of that week, 3 kids prayed to receive Christ as their personal Lord and Savior! What a great week it was, and we are looking forward to many more like it, as they have committed to come back again next year!

UAB - BCM ~~ March 8-12

Hurray for the home team! This week we had a team of college students from the University of Alabama at Birmingham come and work and minister with us. They did everything from digging (and I do mean DIGGING) out the basement/crawl space of the Nehemiah Dorm, to doing a VBS type program with the senior adults at the Cowan Senior Adult Center, to painting fence and picking up around the Campus, to leading services at the Hindman Student Center, to helping with the after-school program at Letcher Elementary School. Their attitudes were amazing, their physical labor demanding and the ministry was sweet and Christ-honoring. They developed relationships with 8 year olds and 80 year olds and had a great time doing it. Go Blazers!
