Arrival in Jackson
by Jacob Jackson | July 10, 2021 11:51 PM
We arrived this evening safely in Jackson! Tonight we got ourselves settled in, then played a little bit of friendly basketball. While we are having fun already, we are so excited to be serving and seeing what God is going to do this week.

A Sabbath Welcome
by Jacob Jackson | July 11, 2021 1:32 PM
We were welcomed this morning by our brothers and sisters in Christ who have allowed us to stay with them for the week. Reverend Barry Male spoke about baptism and communion today before we took part in communion with them. So excited to be working in the area and this morning was a great way to focus before we start our work!

We went to the Civil Rights Museum of Jackson Mississippi. It's incredible display of history was sobering as we went through each exhibit.

God's Haven and The Canopy
by Jacob Jackson | July 12, 2021 8:54 PM
This morning we were involved in two different ministries. One part of the team ran a VBS program with God's Haven which was a blast! Another part of the team was involved with a place called The Canopy. The Canopy is a place where often kids involved in the foster care system stay. Both ministries in the morning were great - we were able to play games and hang out with them.

Today we took some time to explore the city of Jackson through a scavenger hunt! We split into two teams with the high schoolers being the winners. We all won in the end with some good Mississippi fried chicken and catfish!

Leaving for Home
by Jacob Jackson | July 16, 2021 8:35 AM
We rose early in the morning and packed our things. It is bitter-sweet to leave Jackson and all the relationships we built, but we know that God has worked in and through us. Farewell Jackson, and may God pour His blessing out upon every single one of its residents!
