DIRT Update

WE WANT TO WISH YOU A VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS...

Another year has come and is almost gone, but we still have Christmas! I am always excited about ending the year by looking to our Savior for joy and celebration as we spend some quality time with family and friends. I wish I could have a big party and invite all my friends, which definitely includes you. Maybe one day that will happen, but this year at least I can send a letter with sincere Christmas wishes for you and you family.

A lot has happened for the DIRT Crew this year and God has really blessed the ministry. So many lives have been touched with the love of Christ. It has not all been easy but it certainly has been worth it. If we could have that party I would invite everyone that we have ministered to, every student that has served and every adult that has supported the work. What a wonderful gathering that would be. However you fit in this picture I want to say THANK YOU! We love you and appreciate your service, prayers and support.

PARACHUTES FOR COLUMBIA
I am so proud of our middle schoolers at Piedmont Church. In 3 weeks time they raised almost $300 to buy materials to deliver parachutes to Voice of the Martyrs for the sake of dropping bibles and radios in the war torn jungles of Columbia. They not only raised the money but they also made  27 parachutes one Sunday afternoon. Along with the parachutes we provided the funds to purchase solar powered radios, spanish Bibles and other materials to be attached to each parachute. Pray with us that God would  guide each parachute to those who need the hope found in Christ.

WINTER DIRT CAMP WILL BE AWESOME
Please remember to pray for our first ever Winter DIRT Camp (Dec. 30 - Jan.2). I am so excited because the Lord has given us some brand new ideas that will make this camp very special. Because you give we can offer this camp below cost for students. We have many who could not come other wise. Thank you for believing in the DIRT Crew!
