Mission Waco

I just added a link list to my blog after several failed attempts. The last link is to an organization called Mission Waco. They are based right here in -you guessed it- Waco, Texas. Various people from our church are very involved in MW. These people are incredibly gifted with servanthood. Many points of interest here, but one in particular for students of all ages and/or youth workers/ministers. Mission Waco has a poverty simulation program that is second to none.Regardless of your "tribal" ties, this is a life changing experience! Teens that go through this come out with a whole new vision of the poor and oppressed, as do sponsors. Tony Compolo was the guest speaker at MW fundraiser this year. There is an article in Christianity Today and Youth Worker by or about MW Executive Director, Jimmy Dorrel (that title is way to formal if you know the man.) Also check out the Church Under the Bridge that is a ministry of Mission Waco (or vice-versa).
