The Granville crew built this wheelchair ramp for Services for Independent Living.
Among the 250 youth and adults participating in the Disciple Summer Mission at Springfield, MO were groups from South Joplin Christian Church of Joplin and Granville Christian Church of Paris. The week included five worship services, and manual labor and relational ministry for a number of non-profits in Springfield. Tasks included carpentry, painting, landscaping, warehouse work and other tasks.
This group from Granville CC worked with FCC in Buckner at a recycling center for clothing and shoes. The center is operated by Big Brothers/Big Sisters to fund their work. The clothing is baled and recycled and the shoes are sorted and sent overseas to be sold to support their mission of mentoring children and teens.
The group also attended a Springfield Cardinals Game on Thursday night.
The 2020 DSM will be held in Memphis, TN.
