All smiles as we get ready for the trip November 12-19th. 26 of the 32 met at the Grace Presbyterian Church in Kittanning for a pre-trip meeting on Sunday, October 30th. The Presbytery of Kiskiminetas will commission any Nashville Mission Trip participants that aren't packing at home and make it to the meeting on Saturday, November 12th at the Clarion church. We hope and pray that your local congregations will commission you on Sunday, November 6th. Please call Gary or Lisa Lyon if you have any pre-trip questions! Send in all financial donations you have received to the Presbytery office ASAP. More about the site in Nashville and the flood recovery work we'll be doing in the coming days.
Please keep this team and the families/homes we'll be working with in your prayers during the next three weeks. Blessings do abound! Gary & Lisa Lyon
After a long night's journey into day,you are now in Louisville and before long will be back on the bus and headed to Nashville. Thank you for being there. FEMA counts all the volunteer hours toward the local matching funds for aid. The value of you hours is calculated at $16/hr. In reality, your presence is worth far more than that. Your presence is living proof of the love and grace of God.

How wonderful it is to have so many people from our presbytery on this mission trip! The Mt. Tabor Presbyterian Church in Sigel is proud to have 5 people from our congregation on this trip. We (the churches I serve and me) will be lifting you up in prayer the entire time. We will look forward to following your news on here. Praying that God helps you to work well as a team, blesses people in Nashville through you, keeps you safe, and gives you much success in the good work you are doing! Love Always - Boyd
