Brooklyn 2008- Tuesday

Let me just say...Grace students are ALL-STARS!! We are now in our second day of ministry work. The students have already immersed themselves in this community. Right now while I type, we have two of our small teams walking down the streets of Brooklyn boldly sharing there faith with complete strangers. There has yet to be one student hesitant to step up and serve this community and each other. I asked one of our students, Zack Newbauer to write a blog, so here it is:

"Today is our third day and already the trip is going by too fast. Our first day we enjoyed getting settled in after the treacherous train ride, and monday it was off! Groups traveled to the soup kitchen, a couple helped right at the church, and others went down the street handing out smoke detectors to those in need. Today, my group is heading to Coney Island to reach out to the Russian population there. Everyone is working very hard and and we are learning so much about each other and ourselves. God is already doing GREAT things!" - Zack

Keep praying for our week! Here are some pictures so far!
