Mission trip: Crow Agency, Montana.

For 2 weeks (June 27 - July 11, 2009), I volunteered as an Assistant Mission Leader for World Servants in Crow Agency, Montana. If you are like I was, you might be thinking to yourself where that is. Crow Agency is located in the south central part of Montana, within the Crow Indian Reservation, and less than three miles from Little Bighorn Battlefield National Monument.

If you are interested in learning a little more about the Crow check out this site http://www.crowtribe.com/.




Our base camp was at the Spirit of Life Foursquare Church in Crow Agency. Pastor Kenneth Pretty-on-Top and his congregation are amazing. While we were there they were in the process of constructing a new worship center. I hope to make it back someday and attend a service in the new building.



We facilitated church teams from Florida, Virginia, Minnesota, Connecticut, and Michigan just to name a few. Thanks to Vern and his church team for putting together this short video of some of the projects and activities they did, all for the glory of the Lord.


All of the pictures I took on this trip and from past mission trips can be found under my links section, labeled accordingly..."My pictures".
