A group of us from St. Paul's went on Mission Trip to Elyria, Ohio last week. Three adults and five teenagers spent a week building handicapped access ramps to allow people to get into and out of their homes and also making new friends and having fun.
In the sermon that they preached at St. Andrew's Episcopal Church in Elyria on Sunday some of the youth said that just like Jesus used the little that he had (five loaves and two fish) we used the little that we had (some skills and experiance and few tools and some wood) to change the lives of people and our own.
I can't think of a better sermon than that. Ask Haley, Dan, Mary Frances, Timmy, Steven, Jason or Brian about their week - they have stories to tell.
