The mission team has been hard at work in NYC. Tomorrow they’ll be at the Nazareth Early Childhood Center in the morning and back with Raven Ministries for street witnessing in Manhattan.
The ACT NYC Mission Team has been hard at work today at Raven Ministries and the Salvation Army. They helped lead two people to be saved this morning at the Salvation Army. Tonight they are going to perform the ‘Cardboard Testimonies’ at Raven Ministries.
Tomorrow they will be at the Broadway Community Clothing Pantry and Burden Center for Aging in Manhattan. They are also going to the Mets/Cardinals baseball game tomorrow night. Keep them in your prayers and check back often for more updates.

The team made it to NYC yesterday. It looks like they have enjoyed Ray’s Pizza (this is getting to be a habit for our mission teams) and they have been having fun in NYC. This morning they are going to the Brooklyn Tabernacle worship service. Keep them in your prayers this week.
The NYC Mission Team is leaving at 3:30am for New York. Check the top right corner of valleyforgeyouth.com for updates from the team (you don’t have to sign up for twitter to see the updates). Keep them in your prayers over the next week.
I’m going to try to put a testimony from everyone that went on the mission trip to NYC. There is also a video in the works, so come back soon!
Today’s testimonies are from Lindsay Harsh and Julie Waters:
Lindsay Harsh:
Each mission trip I try to bring something back home with me to help me grow in my Christian walk. This time I brought a quote that I would like to share. Pastor Stella was talking and she said “when you want to ask God WHY did something happen or WHY anything, we should turn that WHY into a WHAT and ask ourselves WHAT does God want us to do with the situtation so that HE gets the glory.”. I love that, turn your WHY into a WHAT! God is so good and this mission trip was awesome!

Julie Waters:
Each mission trip it seems i always bring back something different and it’s never what i expect it to be, but it is helping me to grow. It’s 5 words. “Everything you need is me” The lord spoke these words to me the last night at the Time Square church youth service. Throughout the week and weeks prior i had experienced just feeling discontent and discouraged for no reason really and i didn’t understand why. God used this trip to remind me that all i need is him, all i’ll EVER need is him. We had such a good time on the trip and their is so much i brought back with me that can’t be put into words. I thank God he uses each trip to help me grow in different ways.
