Show 5 selves to think of ourselves, our comfort, recreation or what we were putting out for the work of our Lord at the Mission. We threw ourselves unselfishly into the life of St. Christopher's. Because of this, we grew ourselves. We derived great enjoyment from the Work Project. It was great fun praying, living and working hard together. A high point was singing Mass with forty Navajos in the hogan chapel of St. Mary's of the Moonlight at Oljeto and sharing in the Navaj 0 "Coffee Hour" consisting of peaches and lime flavored Kool-Ade. Living at the Mission side by side with the permanent staff was a real privilege and to see the daily operation of the Mission with its many varied activities surely opened our eves to the great task before the Church iri its work to the peonle of the great Navajo nation. To see the Navajos at close range was our privileB'e when we observed their shyness, their homes and way of living. Members of the staff told us much of the history of the Navaio nation and the ways of the people, all of which opened our eyes to these people and helped us to see the great work before the Church here. We are extremely grateful to the Mission staff for o'pening this opnortunity for service to us. We are grat eful to our parents for helning us to go. We are grateful to Father Hultgren, our Rector , for his .g"uidance both spiritual and otherwise, for not only was he pr iest and pastor to us but was straw-boss and co-worker in our construction work. There were eight of us highschoolers to harness. If ~T OU too want an opportunity for real growth in Chr ist and an oppor tunity to serve Him very usefully, why not get a counle of advisors and make arrangements with Father Liebler? We had an experience we will never forget - t reat yourself to the same thing. If we can help you by sharing what we learned on our project we will be happv to try if you will address us through the Reverend Harold G. Hultgren, Holy Trinity Parish, One East Gran~ Avenue, Alhambra. We have some colored slides of our Project and trip and would be happy to put on a program for interested groups. - Young People of Holy Trinity. |
