HELLLLLLLLLLOOOOOOOO Washington, D.C.!
Today was registration day and all of our church groups arrived safe and sound this afternoon! Coming from Florida and North Carolina, all groups are super excited to start the week off.
After everyone settled in, we had our opening celebration that was an exciting start for the amazing week ahead. As adults headed to the leadership meeting, the students stayed back to play some games and get to know each other. We love seeing our students meeting new people and creating new relationships!
Our speaker, Rich Ratts, spoke about relying on God and obeying what he has called us to do, beginning the week off by daring us to follow out a God-sized task: to follow Jesus. Following our time of worship, each church group met for devotional time. Later, all participants were able to meet and get to know their squads. Tomorrow, each squad will go to church together and have a chance to visit their worksites!
Check in here, every day for an update on how all your friends and family are doing in Washington. Also, be sure to encourage them by sending lots of Servemail.
We look forward to sharing a fantastic week with you!
Your Summer Staff,
Jordan & Jack
