Hello!
What a wonderful year it's been! We've seen 12
months filled with lives changed, hearts burdened
for the city and worldviews expanded! As we head
into the Christmas season and reflect upon God's
greatest gift to us, we want to say thank you to all
of you who have partnered with us. What a beautiful
gift it is to serve the Lord alongside you!
If you have served with us,
please share your trip experiences on our blog - email us your
stories!
For this month's City Highlight we're heading on
over to Houston!
It is still possible to sign up

find out which weeks are still available.
