The Shoe Will Fit.... Someone.

Tis the season for mission trips!

So many awesome outreaches are planned for this summer.

Churches are sending teams all over the planet.

Teams of people who will be the hands and feet of Jesus!

Green Valley Christian Center in Henderson, NV is sending some very dedicated folks to the small town of Shelby, Mississippi in a matter of days.

This is an area that's really struggling right now.

They'll be helping a church with renovations so that the good people there can show the love of Christ to their neighbors.

But wait.. there's more!

The team will be:

*Providing a face-lift for Shelby's City Park

*Distributing new clothing and purses to the women

*Giving 1500 pairs of new shoes to needy families!

I told you this is going to be awesome!

The folks from Green Valley Christian Center will be leaving on July 3.

At this point, they're about 468 pairs of shoes short of their goal.

Will you consider helping them out?

They are in desperate need of men's and boys shoes, sizes men's 9 and up and toddler boys and youth sizes.

To get a feel for the heart of the project, watch this short video:
