We’re on a Mission:

Here’s what we’re doing:

* We’re going on Millburn Church’s first-ever youth mission trip. On June 16, 2007, we’re heading for the Rosebud Indian Reservation in Mission, South Dakota. We’ll be working on various maintenance projects and teaching the Vacation Bible School curriculum to the children on the reservation. We will return on June 23 with a lot of stories about spiritual transformation and how we grew as Christian disciples.
