Youth Mission Trip Work on the North Country Trail

Check out this posting that tells of the work of the Youth of my congregation on their mission trip to Pennsylvania. We worked on developing about 2 miles of this 4,600 mile hiking trial called THE NORTH COUNTRY TRIAL which runs from the shores of Miane to western North Dakota. We worked with kids from the area of Penn and some from Minnesota. Some areas were slight inclines and others were very difficult. All the kids were real troopers!!!! We had to hike in about 1.5 miles carrying two hand tools per person plus their own water. I DID learn from on this trip that I really am 50 years old. Long and good days. My team is mentioned on the way with a link to the pictures of our kids working on the trail over the various days. Thanks be to God for a safe trip and the witness we gave to the youth and the community we served in.
