Mission trip to Atlanta

Updated: Jun 29


Mission trip to Atlanta

A team of 18 people, including our very own Changed By Christ board members, Kristina, Raisa, Diane, Jackie, and Denise went on a mission trip to Atlanta, Georgia. Our trip, partnered with Frontline Response (www.frontlineresponse.org) and Abundant Life was to serve the communities that are located in low-income areas, homeless, and women that are trapped in sex trafficking.


Our goal was to be a loving presence within each community. During our week in Atlanta, we loved on people, prepared and served food, distributed clothing, played with the children, and prayed with several men and women.


One important thing about this trip Frontline Response expressed was it is important to get the person's first name and call them by their name at every opportunity. What a change in their facial expressions when you called them by their name, they were no longer invisible but someone actually took the time to remember their name and talk to them. The smile on their face was priceless.


Another moment was when we were distributing clothing to the men and women in a hotel community. The ladies from Changed By Christ were amazing as they helped them decide what clothing looked best on them and made sure they would fit, the ladies and men that were receiving the clothing were so happy that we took the time to let them know we care.


When people saw our van pull up kids came running, the ladies and men had smiles on their faces and couldn’t wait to spend some time with all of us.

God showed up in so many other amazing ways during the week and not only did we touch people's lives, but they touched ours beyond measure.


This was an amazing trip that will be remembered forever.
