Images from Nanchang

Above are images taken during a July mission trip to Nanchang, China, by youth from Silverdale Lutheran Church.
The young people cleaned a sports facility, painted a home for retired nurses and sold newspapers to fund college educations for local students in need.
The group was led by the Revs. Jonathan Sansgaard of Silverdale Lutheran Church and Steve Ray of Elim Lutheran Church of Port Orchard, also executive director of the nonprofit China mission group ChinaConnect.
Students in Silverdale and China continue to Facebook with each other today. Nanchang is in southeast China.
