So this is Susanna – back again after the students have gone “home.” SMI wrapped up on Saturday, but all of us left feeling significantly different than when we arrived. I think we’re all asking, “God, what did you do to me?!!”  We had an amazing two weeks – preliminary data (thanks, Continuity A-team!!!) is that in seven full days of outreach, the team knocked on over 600 doors and completed over 140 health screenings.  We know at least 12 hearts were changed: our own.  Praise God for His work!  What a privilege it was to see what the Lord is doing in North Philadelphia!

SMI Philly 2010 Student Team

Student Team at the Beach (on their ONE day off!) Top to Bottom/L to R: Casey, Kelli, Johanna, Jenna, Lauren, Danielle, Dave, Zach, Dave, Chris, and Dave.

The book everyone read - surreptitiously - during SMI. (We apologize now if your significant other was on the SMI team and is now grilling you!) (But we think it's a good idea...)

I’m hoping one or two of the students will consider writing a debrief/wrap-up post for the blog (hint, hint!).  Can’t wait for next year!!  In order to see the rest of the pics, you will need to befriend one of the Daves on a popular social networking site…
