Last Sunday 30 + C3 men returned from a mini mission trip that
made a MAXI difference in Baxter Springs KS. Baxter Springs is located in the
extreme southeast corner of Kansas on the historic US Route 66 highway in
Cherokee County.
Baxter Springs is the home of Word In Action Ministries a
mission outreach headed up by Pastor Steve Fellers who Derek Mayfield met years
ago as then youth pastor Derek was leading a High School mission trip to offer assistance
after the Joplin Missouri tornado. Our youth group has returned each Spring Break since to serve in the ministries
resource center and Trinity Worship Center with cleanup, food distribution and
building repair. C3’s mens ministry
picked up where our youth left off and in a three day period totally resided
the 13,000 sq. foot Resource Center and reroofed the church building.
When I
asked Luke Haines the owner of
RoofMasters in Hays how they could accomplish so much in so little time he told
me that God was with them blessing them with cool weather and great attitudes. Celebration Community Church
will continue to be committed to partnering with this vital ministry which
feeds and ministers to hundreds of people in need in this economically
depressed community. Thank you to all of the men who participated in this
massive service project.
Even though we know we blessed Word In Action Ministries, the
real beneficiaries of God’s blessings were those 30+ men who donated their time
and sweat and to you who helped support them with much needed funds for
materials through our Annual Community Mission Auction. A very special thanks again
to RoofMasters for donating all of the vehicles and equipment to get the job
done.
Well done good and faithful servants.
Your pastor and partner in ministry,
Kyle
