MarquetteSunday June 15, 2019 – Pastor Jenny Cammarata invited 41 West to conduct a service for two bus loads of Presbyterian high school kids on a mission trip from Milwaukee to Marquette.

Naomi and I sang and played 8 songs. Jenny projected the words and these “Missionary kids to Marquette” sang along.

This 45-minute heartfelt intimate event set the stage for a week of Christian work and service in the Marquette County area.

Pastor Nicks new bull dog puppy took a liking to Todd Noordyk as the adults sat in comfy chairs and chatted after the service.
