Good seats still available

Here are just a few of the things you will hear next week
when CAMT shows slides of the mission trips they have taken
and share what the mission trip experience is like.

People on the teams fit into the responsibilities needed.
No one had to be told what to do.
It was amazing how you could find ways to communicate
with people whose language you dont speak.
The change when we crossed the Rio Grande was unbelieveable:
shacks for homes, trash along the roads, abandoned cars.
It was great to see the teens on the WV mission trips. They worked hard
and seemed very dedicated to helping those in need.
Seeing the great love the Mexican parents have for their children was touching.
Parents keep the children clean even in a dry, dusty--or, when it rains, a very muddy environment.
Along with hard work there were a lot laughs:
(Yahtzee games for the WV teams and,
for the Mexico team, the on-going birthday parties
for Frank--or "Dad" as he was called--because he had the credit card and paid all the bills.)
The people seemed to know we were there to help because we genuinely care about them.
