"Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross daily and follow me." Luke 9:23b
When I'm not busy doing outreach, you can nd me in my ofce buried under volunteer applications and sticky note messages! On the more exciting side, our fundraising banquet is just around the corner, and we have some special video projects in the works! Every day is a new adventure, with unique opportunities and challenges. The daily challenge for me is to remember that it is not I, but Christ in me; not my strength, power, or wisdom, but His. Hoka hey!
die to ourselves and to live for Christ. With the busy summer season upon us, we will have plenty of opportunities to live out this motto. Personally, I will be spending a lot of time over the next few months with the multitude of volunteers we have coming to serve with us on The Relief Bus. In addition to serving with them on the bus, nearly every Thursday evening this summer I plan to lead a group of volunteers into Penn Station in NYC to engage with people who live there by handing out yers, sharing meals, and just making friends.
I'm staying busy producing video projects, training volunteers, serving on the bus, keeping up with ofce work, and more! Hoka hey!

HERE AM I, I WILL GO
This October, I have the opportunity to fulll the Great Commission in a new way as I travel with The Relief Bus staff to Haiti. We see poverty every day in our work on The Relief Bus, but this trip will give us the opportunity to experience poverty on a whole new level while growing as a team and serving the least of these in another land. During our time in Haiti, we will be serving with the Foursquare Haiti base in Port-auPrince. As we step out of our comfort zone and onto this new mission eld, we will be serving in a variety of ways, from assisting with construction projects to spending time with orphans. As an urban missionary, I need people who are willing to partner with me nancially to help send me to Haiti. The total cost of the trip is approx. $1,500. Would you be willing to partner with me to help our brothers and sisters overseas? To give visit donate.reliefbus.org and designate your gift to Katie Morris - Haiti. You can also send checks to The Relief Bus, 295 Walnut St, Elizabeth, NJ 07201. Please include a note "Katie Morris Haiti. Thank you!
