Eye-Opening BUMP Moments

"Our students have learned a lot in a few short days about poverty, racism, gentrification, which could all be summarized by saying that all three are way more complicated than they've ever imagined," writes Cedric Lundy (read his full blog entry). BUMP strives to help participants understand compassion and justice issues here in our country.

Today we're praising God that Stillmeadow EFC is "winning back the favor of the community!"

BUMP's about what we're here to do...right?

Missions trips are about serving others...giving of ourselves...letting God use us. Aren't they? Yes...and no! God ALWAYS does a mighty work IN BUMPers AND BUMP staff! That's the true beauty of missions!

Cedric Lundy, Church at Charlotte team leader writes in his blog: "Also it’s been good to see some of our students come out of their shell this week. One student in particular I’ve never seen be very animated or say more than two words at a time. Now she’s running around with some other girls, goofing around with the water balloons with kids from the neighborhood, and doing little ballerina jumps to and fro. Two other young ladies who rarely are at youth group during the school year have really gotten plugged in with many of the other girls. It’s developments like that internally within the group which make being hundreds of miles away from home for a service project totally worth it for our group of students."
