InterChange Thailand Prayer Team
May 10–29, Mount Carmel’s first InterChange team will travel to Thailand! This cross-cultural exposure trip is intended to help students see the world with fresh eyes, understand more what it means to be a global Christian, and shape how students live as followers of Jesus at home. Do pray for the details of this trip, for Jeannie Blair and Wayne Tomalty as they lead, and for its impact on lives.
