HOUSTON ARTS TEAM

August 31,2012- July 2013 I will be serving with a program called Mission year. Mission year is an urban ministry program focused on Christian service and discipleship. I will be living and working with a team of people in Houston, TX to serve and create community through the avenue of the arts. The majority of my time I will be serving at St. John's Church in downtown Houston. The program is committed to the command of Jesus to “love God and love people,” by placing the needs of our neighbors first and developing committed disciples of Christ with a heart for the poor. The day by day schedule includes intentional community, professional service, discipleship, neighborhood outreach, church partnership, and education/training. (for more info check out the links on the sidebar)

Pray: for a heart to love God and love people.

The Road trip begins!!!





Pictured on the left is Princeton, MA my hometown of approximately 3,000 people. Pictured on the right is Houston, TX future destination of approximately 2,100,000 people.  Growing up in a small town I never dreamed I would be headed across the country to serve in the inner city for a year.  I am confident that God called me to the University of Virginia and I am also confident that God has called me to move to Houston this year. 

For I know the plans I have for you," says the LORD. "They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope." Jeremiah 29:11

So tomorrow morning I will be embarking on a 3 week, 2,000 mile, 13 state road trip.
