Today was the first day of our Mission Trip to Nashville. We had a safe day of traveling and arrived in Nashville around 5:30 and checked in to our hotel. We had a great BBQ dinner in a local park, which was unfortunately cut short by a thunderstorm. We returned to the hotel a little earlier than planned, but we still had a good evening. Our students & adults are excited and ready to begin a full day of ministry tomorrow morning!

Here is our highlight video from today:
