faithful CSM group leader.

CSM Impact: Tim
Osborne
|
Tim Osborne started bringing groups to CSM during his first year as a youth pastor. He had never been on a
mission trip before, but wanted to introduce his youth to something outside of their comfort zone. In his
own words, Tim “kinda had a bad attitude about short-term missions.”
