My Mission First experience has been amazing! I love the story of how this site where was once an abandoned apartment complex. The great thing is that this center was made new.
I personally think this really helps others learn about Christ and grow in Him. I had the opportunity to serve with the M-Fuge game and recreation crew. Mission First gave me an opportunity to share the wonderful message of Christ Jesus, my Lord and Savior.
Also, the smiles of the kids were amazing I am going to miss seeing their smiles, but my experience gave me an opportunity to witness first hand the impact of serving on the mission field - which I am planning to do one day. I enjoyed the one on one time with the students because the opportunity to share our hearts with the camp participants. I know I will be in continued prayer for what is in the future of Mission First and all of the lives it touches.
I saw Christ move here and appreciate how the kids show respect to those around them - that is hard to find from young people, myself included. Did Christ move in this place? My answer would have to be yes. I would like to thank the staff at Mission First for what they are doing and for allowing us to come here!
