STW Ministry Trip Photos

TCM is grateful for the many short-term workers who serve during the winter construction trip and throughout the schoolyear. These ministry trips focus on servant leadership, serving the students who have come great distances to take their courses so that they may be more effective in reaching their communities for Jesus Christ.

Short-term workers (STWs) can expect to work long hours (approximately 12 hours per day), climb stairs or ladders, lift heavy items, dig in the dirt, bend to clean, etc. Despite the busy schedule and varying tasks, many STWs have found their service at Haus Edelweiss to be quite rewarding and return to serve again. 

Here are some miscellaneous photos of serving at Haus Edelweiss, plus some fun ones too.
