Some of you have asked for the shortened version of the MRT 18 recap video that we showed on Elevate Sunday. Here it is:

During this series we are discussing WORSHIP.
Week #1: What is Worship? (April 25)
Week #2: Worship in Spirit and Truth with special guest Sam Montijo (May 2)
Week #3: Worship as Art (May 9)
Week #4: A Worship-filled Life (May 16)
Don’t forget that tomorrow is Elevate Sunday in both services at Laurel Nazarene. We will be sharing stories and God Moments from MRT 18, leading worship, and in charge of the entire service. Don’t forget to wear your MRT 18 shirt or an Elevate shirt. If you don’t have either we will have one for you when you arrive. Check in with Sarah when you arrive for job assignments and to answer any questions that you may have.

Today our students got to be college students for a day as we had a campus visit at Mount Vernon Nazarene University. We got to eat in the cafeteria, we got a campus tour, met with some college students to ask questions, and got to hang out on campus for a while. We also got to hang out with Caitie again (last summer’s intern) since she is a student here.
After dinner we went to our last service project called “Feed the Vern”. Feed the Vern is a non-profit that gives out food bags to elementary school kids on Fridays at schools so that they will have food over the weekend. These kids get meals throughout the week at school, but don’t have food for the weekends. This ministry helps make it possible for kids to have food all weekend as well. Our group packed over 400 bags which is enough for the rest of the school year.
Every night of the trip we have group time where we share stories and God Moments from the day, and then the students spend some quiet time journaling about their experiences. Tonight we had an extended time as we shared about the entire week, and ways that we can “Continue the Adventure” when we get home. I (Pastor Derek) encourage all parents to ask their teenagers about their experiences this week (although you may want to wait a day or two for them to rest before you barrage them with questions).
Tomorrow is a travel day, and so this will be the last daily recap. I (Pastor Derek) want to say before I wrap up that you should be very proud of our students. They all had such a sweet attitude and worked hard all week. This has been one of the best groups that I have ever had the privilege to lead on a Missions Road Trip.
We will be heading out early tomorrow morning and we plan on arriving back at LNC by 6:30pm.
Here are a few other pictures from today:

















Every morning of this trip we start our day with reciting the “Prayer of St. Patrick”. This beautiful prayer is a commitment and a hope that Christ would be evident in every part of our lives and our day. It is the prayer that the song “Christ Be All Around Me” is based on. And throughout this week it has been amazing to see how our students have taken that prayer to heart and have been used by God to be examples of Christ’s love and attitude of service.
Today we once again worked at LifeCare Alliance. We delivered food to people’s homes, collected groceries for cancer patients, worked in the cafe serving hot food, and wrapped silverware for their catering business (this catering business helps keep their lights on as each year they get less and less grant money).
In the evening we worshipped with the Mount Vernon First Church of the Nazarene’s youth group, “Catalyst”. It was such a cool experience joining with their youth group and hearing some teaching from Pastor Brian on ways to share the gospel that actually works. The highlight was getting to see Caitie who was our summer intern last year.
