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.
