Mission of the Month
MISSION OF THE MONTH FOR
MARCH IS
THE 2010 YOUTH
MISSION TRIP
On
June 25 – July 2, Nancy and Robert Harding will be privileged to accompany
five Sr. Highs to the Crow Reservation in Montana where they will participate
in a YouthWorks Mission Trip.
They
will fly into Jackson, Wyoming on June 25th, spend the 26th in Yellowstone
National Park and then begin serving the people of the Crow tribe on the
27th. Below is a bit of information about the Crow Reservation and
YouthWorks.
The
Crow Reservation in southeast Montana encompasses approximately 2.3 million
acres, which includes the northern end of the Bighorn Mountains, Wolf
Mountains and Pryor Mountains. It is bordered by Wyoming on the south and its
northwest boundary is about 10 miles from Billings, Montana. The Crow tribe
also is referred to as “Apsaalooke,” which means “children of the
large-beaked bird.” Today, tribal membership is approximately 11,000 (7,900
reside on the reservation) and eighty-five percent speak Crow as their first
language. The Crow have traditionally been an agricultural people, though today
they operate only a small portion of their farming acreage. A 65 percent
unemployment rate has led not only to poverty, but to a hopelessness
resulting in elevated rates of substance abuse and high school dropouts.
Our
mission will be to encourage, serve and help restore hope to those who are
struggling. Whether we’re painting houses, performing minor home repair,
cleaning up debris, volunteering in community gardens or ministering at a
Kids’ Club, we will endeavor to be a blessing to the people of the Crow
tribe.
