CSM City Journal

May 2010

Hello!

It's truly a joy to see some of the fruits of service! Check out what a recent Houston trip leader had to say:
"I can show up knowing that CSM will make missions with 50 seventh-graders easy and incredibly life changing!...Thanks again for an incredible year. We had five students accept Jesus for the first time ever. We had several break through their comfort zone and talk to people about Jesus and even pray for people."
The Lord is moving mightily in the city! Would you join us in working for the Kingdom?

Come and discover the real Philadelphia - this month's City Highlight. If you'd like to learn more about serving in the "City of Brotherly Love", please visit our website.

City Highlight: Philadelphia
In light of the summer season drawing ever closer to us, it seemed appropriate to me to find something in my journal from last summer to reflect on this month. As a city host, summers are full of busy-ness, joy, excitement, and many new experiences.

Looking for creative ways to donate to CSM Philadelphia? Check out their "Wish List". Items include mattresses, gardening tools and more. Feel free to print it and post it - and please don't hesitate to email us if you have any questions!
