Friday I'm hauling my bride and 9 church teens to South Dakota to work with the Pine Ridge area Lakota Sioux. We are going to drive it out, 20+ hours each way, and caravan with a church from Kingston.
A lot of what we'll be doing is connecting with kids and teens. Although you don't generally think of Gangs and Native Americans in the same sentence, their teens are heavily influenced by the draw of belonging to something in the midst of their low-hope reservation setting.
We will be doing VBS stuff for the kiddies. For the teens we will be making paracord survival bracelets and playing some basketball.
We'll also be doing some minor construction to a building used by a church their.
I haven't been to South Dakota since I went with my girlfriend's church group back in '82. Since we've been married 28 years now, perhaps I can talk her into posing with me for one more picture there this year!
Prayers for our trip are appreciated.
