| Mission Experiences are life changing for Clients
and participants. Each year we are very fortunate to receive comments
from those we work with and others who shared the experience vicariously
through someone else. Listed here are testimonials from many we have
worked with. A complete list of references from teams who have participated
in one of our programs is available to you as well. Please ask.
"I don't know who you are or where you came from..But God Bless
You All!"
Lawrence, Client
"Outstanding! Well organized! My youth grew so much in the week
we were there. Our lives were changed through this experience."
Reverend Kirk Hatherly, United Methodist Pastor
"I felt called by God to be a part of the ministry while I was
there as a participant. The Lord is working and is very much alive
at ReCreation Experiences!"
Liz Striepe-Wright, former participant, Staff member and Member
of the Board of Directors.
I had reached the end of my rope; I did not know where my help was
going to come from. I asked God for help and God sent you. You are
my angels of mercy!
Jean, Client
I had no idea that people could live in something like this and
that I could help make their life better, I can never be the same.
When I get home, I don't know what I will say to my friends about what
has happened to me while I have been here. I guess I will just have
to show them.
Laura, 16 year old participant
You're planning and organization is superior! Well thought out projects,
we never lacked for anything! I felt our work was much needed and our
time was not wasted!
Reverend Barclay Wyckoff, Presbyterian Youth Pastor
Your staff was incredible. We felt supported and encouraged by them
all week. You have true servant's hearts and it shows in everything
you do and say!
Cathy, Adult Volunteer
"The change in my son was astounding! He came home a different
person because of his experience there. God must be a real part of
what you people do"
Virginia, Parent volunteer
I just knew you would come, so, I never worried, I waited and sure
enough God got you here just in time!
Mr. C, client
"The summer I was there on staff, the work and the experience,
it all gave me a vision of who God was calling me to be. I don't know
that I have ever worked that hard in my life, but I do know that who
I am today was being molded and formed while I was there on Staff.
I would recommend everyone to be a part of this Intern experience.
Reverend Jeremy Mount United Methodist Pastor, former Intern Staff
"It changes you, when you see the reality of how so many people
live in horrible sub standard housing. When you see that people who
can be so different in what they believe can all come together and
for one week or even one day, and, lay aside all the stuff we typically
argue about as Christians and for a brief moment in time, we can agree!
We agree that we can make a difference in a life by sharing our faith
through home repair mission. It changes a person, I mean, you begin
to believe that all things are possible, if we just believe and work
together...
Chase Hurst, Intern Staff Member, Summer 2003 |
