This year youth ministry at First Presbyterian Church of Midland, Texas, is extremely blessed to be taking 27-29 high school students and leaders on a mission trip to the rural mountains of Jamaica. This trip is through Son Servants, part of the same organization that offers The Great Escape and Fun in the Son that are long standing summer trips.
The cost of the trip is $1500 per person and we will be "selling stock" in the students over the next couple of Sundays. We would love to raise enough money to provide scholarships as well as lower the cost. We will also have tables set up in the church you can buy your stock in person!
If you would like to give on line, here is a link for our "on-line" giving. Once logged in select "youth stock sale" and the amount you would like to give!
Thank you for supporting the youth ministry of First Presbyterian Church.

As our kids grow up, besides the impact of parents regularly living out their faith with their kids, one of the most impactful things our teenagers can take part in is a mission trip. I would even go as far to say if I could only pick on opportunity for a teen, it would be to serve on a mission trip!
First, to walk in the footsteps of Jesus and to serve like Jesus served and to love those that the world often forgets is very powerful. I have been taking students regularly to the same place in Jamaica for the past 25 years as they will have an opportunity to visit a place called the "Infirmary". God has used the residents of that place to impact the lives of thousands of students over the past 25 years and I am really looking forward to bringing our Midland kids. Thank you for helping!
