Portland Service Trip


The Saturday before Christmas, we took a group of teens to Portland for a service trip. With Santa hats and bags full of wrapped mittens, socks, hats and scarves, we walked around downtown Portland and handed out our presents to the homeless. The teens were surprised at how many people there were who were in need of such simple items like socks and mittens. It was a very meaningful time for everyone and those from our group kept talking about how good it felt to make a difference in so many people's lives.
