All Chapel Student Ministry mission teams follow a process on their respective trips called, "expose, engage, impact." What this means is that we spend a great deal of time learning about and getting exposed to our ministry setting, before we attempt to impact those we came to serve. Tonight was the perfect beginning to our trip. We were exposed to all that is Washington DC. We learned its history, viewed its monuments, prayed for its leaders and learned about its struggle with poverty. This time will prove invaluable when we begin to engage in the lives of those living in DC tomorrow and as we ultimately hope to have an impact on this city to God's glory.
More to come Monday night...
