Families Reaching Out
The next stop in Arizona…
FROMM, Families Reaching Out in Missions and Ministry, reaches out to Native Americans on different reservations in Arizona and surrounding states. This was the team’s first introduction to hot and dry outreach in desert area. The two locations of these few weeks of missions were in Stanfield and Miami Arizona.
The first thing the team noticed was that the ministry center was in really bad shape, and it needed some help! Immediately, they jumped in with cleaning and painting.
The purpose of the two Vacation Bible Schools was to reach out to the children in some of the poorest areas near the centers. The team went into the neighborhoods and invited children to come in…and that began an experience that changed both the kids and the team!
