Testimonial from Tom Ribar, Associate Pastor of Youth and Families from Union Presbyterian Church
I had the privilege of leading a team of folks from two churches from Pittsburgh, Pa – Union Church of Robinson and Mt. Pisgah Church – to join with the folks at the John and Vera Mae Perkins Foundation this past July. I have to say that the trip was everything I had expected and more! For one, I got to renew my friendship with Elizabeth, Dr. Perkins and others that I had built over the years! Those friendships are one of the real strengths of joining with the Foundation in its work in Jackson. It had been six years since I had last visited the JVMPF. Nonetheless, Elizabeth and her staff welcomed me and our team as if it had been just yesterday.
In addition to the relationships with the Foundation staff, our team was profoundly moved by the interpersonal interaction with Dr. Perkins and the time we had to learn from him through his teaching about the power of the Gospel. Add to this a variety of work projects, sharing in the ministry to children in the community through the summer day camp program, and fellowship with families from the neighborhood, and you have the recipe for a great week of mission and ministry. For me, the proof is in the pudding! The folks who traveled with me have been changed by the experience! They continue to talk about the trip – the people they met, the lessons learned, the work accomplished, the experience at the Mississippi Civil Rights museum, learning about Medgar Evers – and want to follow through on how their understanding of the Gospel was deepened by it all! We’ve taken concrete steps to follow up with action right here in our own city of Pittsburgh. I couldn’t have asked for better outcomes…can’t wait to get back to Jackson to see it happen again!
