As a result, it led right into an explanation of why New Tribes Mission exists and what it is we do here at New Tribes […]

Reno wrapped up early…Thank You Lord!

We started on May 23…meeting together to pray and assign teams to work on different areas of the school; emptying apartments, staging appliances, removing flooring, baseboards, old cabinets.
