Australia GO! Team Set

Our first GO! Team ready to kick off the summer is heading to Brisbane, Australia for 16 days, June 30-July 16. The group of eleven will partner with the Ann Street Church of Christ in downtown Brisbane. Ann Street is a small multi-ethnic congregation that has a heart for those in Australia's 3rd largest (and most livable!) city, and they are reaching a wide spectrum of people from all walks of life.

Our time with them will include working at the church property, outreaches in the local community, spending time with the youth of Ann Street, learning to throw boomerangs, worshipping together, watching football (rugby), sampling Vegemite (and maybe more ekidna!), and traveling six hours to the aboriginal community of Eidsvold to spend time with a wonderful group of young people (and adults!) there.

Please keep this group in prayer as they travel, serve, share and experience so many new adventures. Pray that God will use them to impact the lives of others, even as He impacts them in ways that will stick with them for the rest of their days. 2008 Australia GO! Team- Leslee Marvin, Liz Crews, Robert Crews, Wayne Crews, Mike Carman, Kyle Marsh, Matt Whelchel, Shaya Hillion, Jessica Rallis, Chelsea Branscombe (not pictured: Marisol Babcock)

Nice Job on both sites. I am very impressed. You really have designed it well.

You will become addicted to blogging. It's an extension of you. Nice work.
