Short Term Team in Nashville

Passion Play (Crucifiction of Jesus)

This past week at the base we had groups from churches (from other states) doing short term outreaches. On the first night we did a suprise passion play after having a service on purity, and living a life whole heartily for Christ. We had a time of repentance of sins, and at the end of the message we took the audience on the journey of the people witnessing the crucifiction.

Afterwards we had a time of talking and praying with the groups. A group of our youth from church also joined us, and It was nice for them to be apart of what we were doing. We got to pray for those who do and don't know the Lord -it was a beautiful moment and we believe the youth left transformed.

DeWayne was Simeon (carried the cross) and John (a comforter), and Tara was one of the ladies with Mary (a comforter).

Flood Relief

Friday we went down and helped the team with cleaning a house in Nashville that had been damaged by the waters. DeWayne and Tara were helping clean out the belongings destroyed by the flood in the back garage while the others did demolition in the house. The woman we were helping was really blessed by our work.

Driving through affected neighborhoods reminded us slightly of the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. We saw a house that had been lifted off of its foundation, piles of evidence of cleaning out houses, and some houses had waterlines on.

We have overheard the people of Nashville feeling forgotten. We were there to give them hope, one person at a time-YOU ARE NOT FORGOTTEN.
