MFUGE: Mission First is a blessing to the community

This week at M-Fuge has been so amazing! I’ve met new people, played games and most importantly, I’ve grown closer to God. I chose the recreation track and I’m so thankful I did! Our mission site was at Mission First. There we made friends with youth and teenagers from the inner city area. It has been so wonderful spending time with everyone here, playing games with them and getting to know them. They were so welcoming and it just seemed like they really wanted us to be there. It was so easy to see how much fun everyone had at Mission First.

It’s easy to tell that God surrounds this place with his love and safety. And, it just warmed my heart when the youth would volunteer to pray or when they had their Bibles out. With Mission First these youth get an opportunity to see how amazing God really is! Mission First is such a blessing to the community.
