Edgefield Youth find New Orleans the right place to be


web posted September 13, 2008
By Marilyn Stewart
NEW ORLEANS – Two South Carolina youth teams, in New Orleans recently, discovered the open doors and open hearts that Baptists there describe when they say, “It’s a great time to be a Southern Baptist in New Orleans.” The slogan carried on the Baptist Association of Greater New Orleans website refers to the new trust and acceptance Southern Baptists are experiencing in the city as a result of volunteers’ work there since Katrina.

West Hartsville Baptist Church students were welcomed into a Catholic sponsored residence for troubled teens to lead a week-long Bible school. Antioch Baptist Church of Edgefield teens found a listening ear as they shared God’s promises of comfort with a contractor who had recently lost a loved one.

Both teams partnered with MissionLab, a ministry of New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary that provides hands-on ministry experience by linking church groups to established ministry relationships, including food banks, community centers, senior-adult assisted living facilities, AIDS residences, child-care centers, a correctional unit, a homeless ministry and others.

The ministry options allow a church to custom-fit their mission trip to their team’s size, age and strengths. More than 175 students from 7 South Carolina churches have worked with MissionLab this summer.
