Pics from 2010 Mission Trip

Here are some pictures I have gotten off of Facebook from Dawn and Laura. The group arrived Sunday and rested up/prepared for the week. Monday was amazing and exhausting day, according to Laura and Catherine. Please pray for their strength and energy as well as their continued safety! Be sure to visit the Facebook group (link is on the right side of the page) for more updates.
