Chad's Boston Mission Trip

Chad just returned from his first short-term mission trip with North Hills Church. About 30 teens, sophomores to seniors went to south Boston to bless the inner city people there. For eight days they helped fix up their host church, conducted outreaches for the inner city children, visited nursing homes, prayed with homeless people on the streets, and spent one day sight-seeing! They spent Fourth of July at the Boston Pops Extravaganza conducting an outreach and enjoying the fireworks and orchestra. Chad said it was an amazing experience and he loved every minute of it.


A group of amazing teens! Chad's in the back, center with the white Boston hat.

This is the host church, Christ the Rock. Chad said it really needed a lot of fixing up on the inside.

Chad's at the end in the white Boston hat again. They performed at the youth service and at one of the outreaches.

Glad I didn't see this photo til after he got home!

A little too close to the rail, I'd say.

So glad to have him home...
