Our fifth summer at Morningside is coming to an end.  It’s been a fantastic summer filled with Vacation Bible School, three local Bible clubs, a mission trip to Charleston, a rafting trip, and a trip Carowinds for the Big Youth Thing.  This is also the fifth summer that we’ve passed my Tuareg Cross.  Each summer we pass a cross necklace that is called a Tuareg Cross from person to person within the Youth Ministry.  My sister brought it to me as a gift from her mission trip to Africa in the 90’s, but now it’s passed among our students as a way for them to encourage one another.  They pass it each day of our summer adventures to someone in whom they see Christ.  Here’s the path of the cross this summer:
