Mission Trip 2008! Yes, we returned to Riverton, WY. The New York Mission Team joined us this year and it was a great trip. We had 16 from NY with 37 teens from Gulf States. The Lord blessed us with being able to stay in the Methodist Church in Riverton. There were work projects at the Adventist church as well as NY doing a VBS there. Work projects at the Assembly of God church and GS did their VBS there. We each had a lot of children attending. Each VBS was very successful. So glad to see many returnees. It was nice to be together again and make new friends as well.
NEW LINK !!! Check under Web Links - Teen Invitational’s - Rock climbing to check out the view the youth had that went rock climbing. The view is always best from the top. Great time with other teens in God's great outdoors. Time to enjoy, learn to climb, learn to repel, learning to trust and teamwork.
This site was set up for the use of anyone that has ever been on one of our mission trips, and for those working behind the scenes that make the trips possible. We are compiling a database of members, past, present, and future. We will also be posting a gallery of images from past trips, as these become available. 2008 was our 19th year of teen mission service in the Gulf States Conference. Please register as a member and notify any of your friends from the mission trips you attended. All participants and support staff will be able to use this website as a method of contact between other registered members. Forums for discussions and chat rooms are developed to enhance the communication of all registered participants and staff. Everyone has a great time on our mission trips, and carry the memories with them for the rest of their lives. We have in many cases bonded and become like family. We'd like for everyone to be able to share their memories with others, and to stay in touch with the friends they've made on the trips. If you have any suggestions or questions, or have things to share, please e-mail - Admin. Let us hear from you soon. Thanks, and God bless.
This site will be undergoing major changes and may close down completly after the 2009 mission trip.
There will be a location on the "new" Gulf States Conference web site for the Mission Trip information and a calender to place Teen Invitational info. This is supposed to be ready sometime in Aug.
We may consider keeping the forum and chat room if there is any interest. But all calender info will be on the Conference site where it can be updated by the various ones involved. We are trying to get the info updated and available in a more timely fashion.
