Chicago: 3 million people & 500,000 college students from all over the world...

Today I want to ask you to be praying for a group in Chicago on a mission trip.

My brother-in-law, Scott, took a group of 19 high school seniors & college students to Chicago on a mission trip for the week of spring break. 

They will be working at two Chicago universities during the day, working in the community of Maywood in the late afternoons, & feeding the homeless in the evenings.

Here are the names of the group in Chicago: 

-Steve Clark
-Sky Farley
-Scott Greenland
-Abby Hahn
-Emily Hahn
-Danielle Haralson
-Carol Jackson
-Sami Garroutte
-Brett Knaust
-Calli Knight
-Derek Maloy
-James Rehanek
-Tonya Rehanek
-Justin Romaine
-Matt Shearer
-Heidi Stair
-Abby Tanner
-Chelsea Treloar
-Wes Walker

I want to ask you to be praying for this group today & the rest of the week. I also want to ask you to be praying for the people they will be in contact with.... college students, maywood community, & the homeless at night. Pray that this group will see every opportunity that is given to share Christ & serve this week. On Friday Scott told me that the college campuses do not have a BSM (baptist student ministry) or anything relevant to that... they are hoping to help get something started eventually at these campuses. 

I am looking forward to hearing how God worked this week in Chicago! I will be sure to update you on the trip when they get back! Thank you so much for your prayers!!!

*Let us not forget to be praying for Japan & everyone affected by this tragedy...
