CHICAGO, IL (December 3, 2009) \u2013 Six high school students from Evangelical Covenant churches across the United States will travel to Thailand the day after Christmas to participate in a mission trip sponsored by the Department of World Mission<\/a> (DWM).
\n
\n\"ProjectThe students will work with missionaries Peter and Ruthie Dutton of the Mekong Valley Food Project. They will meet the people that benefit from the work of the Duttons, worship with them, and explore the culture of Thailand, where less than one percent of the population is Christian, says Kim Crawford, DWM mobilization and connection assistant. Crawford will lead the trip.<\/p>\n

Students participating in the trip are:<\/p>\n

\u2022\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Jamie Sladkey from Naperville Covenant Church<\/a> in Naperville, Illinois.
\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Jon Foley from Deerbrook Covenant Church<\/a> in Lees’ Summit, Missouri.
\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Kaitlin Choquette from Evangelical Covenant Church<\/a> in Sloan, Iowa.
\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Sara Wilson from Lakebay Community Covenant Church<\/a> in Lakebay, Washington.
\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Alison Honn from Valley Covenant Church<\/a> in Eugene, Oregon.
\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Steph Braman from Cape Cod Covenant Church<\/a> in Brewster, Massachusetts.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The students are conversing regularly through conference calls to do team building, trip preparation and to pray, says Crawford. They’re also friends on Facebook.<\/p>\n

\"Thailand\"Covenant high school students became especially aware of the work in Thailand when it was highlighted during CHIC 2009. Three students traveled to the Southeast Asia country and gave live reports to students attending the triennial conference in Knoxville, Tennessee.<\/p>\n

Students at CHIC responded overwhelmingly<\/a> with financial support, giving more than $109,000 for Thailand mission work. Many students and youth groups felt a strong desire to travel to Thailand and participate in the work.<\/p>\n

\u201cCalls began to come in mere hours after CHIC ended,\u201d Crawford says.<\/p>\n

Arrangements are being made and applications are being accepted for Spring Break and summer trips in 2010. Those trips will also visit Ruthie and Peter Dutton as well as Randy and Cheryl Bevis and Carl and Karen Groot. For more information, click here<\/a> or email Crawford<\/a>.<\/p>\n
