A Guidebook for Youth Service Trips
By Krista Dutt (Faith & Life Resources, 2009)

“For Christian believers, a life of service is all about joining God’s work in history. God is active in the world, healing, restoring and bringing in God’s shalom through Christ. God has brought light into our own lives. In response, we merge our wills and our energies with God’s, allowing ourselves to be instruments of God’s peace.” –Krista Dutt, from the book
