			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Registration for our Spring Break Mission Experience is officially open.  We have two trips scheduled.  Click on the dates to register for the <a href="http://www.wcrossing.org/default.aspx?page=3636&amp;eventId=727">March 19-21</a> trip or the <a href="http://www.wcrossing.org/default.aspx?page=3636&amp;eventId=728">March 21-23</a> trip.</p>
<p>From Chrissy Stergos, our youthcrossing Events and Operations Coordinator:</p>
<blockquote><p>At youthcrossing, our primary focus for our missions and outreach efforts are directed into our own St. Louis area. We headquarter somewhere in the city- for this trip Urban St. Louis K-Life will be our home base. From there, we&#8217;ll launch a variety of service projects, doing all sorts of things, from working in soup kitchens, to helping at a farm which benefits refugees, or volunteering at food banks, nursing homes, or boys and girls clubs.  In addition, your kids will experience daily devotionals and debrief times led by staff and volunteer leaders, emphasizing the link between following Jesus and helping others. Registration fee covers everything your kids will need, including all meals and transportation.</p>
<p>If you have other questions, please let us know. E-mail us at <a href="mailto:youth@wcrossing.org">youth@wcrossing.org</a>, or call 636-532-1212 during regular office hours.</p></blockquote>
