A group of high school graduates thought they would be ending their last summer before college with a mission trip to India this week.
But plans had to change and instead of a plane to Kolkata, they found themselves on a Shandon bus to D.C. last week. They are supporting several church plants with outreach and evangelism efforts, and God has opened many doors for gospel conversations over the past several days.
