On Sunday afternoon, our high school youth hit the road for Kentucky for our second and final mission trip of the summer. We will be staying with our gracious friends at First Christian Church of Paducah and traveling each day 30 minutes down the road into Mayfield, KY to build community, both literally and figuratively.
We kicked off our road trip by starting our “Mayfield Mission Trip” Playlist on Spotify! Each person on the trip takes a turn picking a category for us all to pick a song choice to. Then everyone picks a song and adds it to the playlist. Then when we get to the end of the playlist, the next person picks the next category. Sam picked the first category, “Songs that remind you of Summer”… here are some of the songs that were chosen:
-Watermelon Sugar by Harry Styles -Sunday Best by Surfaces -I Ain’t Worried by OneRepublic -Summertime by DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince -Island In The Sun by Weezer -Maz Que Nada by Serio Mendes, Gracinha Leporace -Cruel Summer by Taylor Swift -Starting Over by Chris Stapleton -Paper Rings by Taylor Swift -Wonderland by Taylor Swift -Party in The U.S.A. by Miley Cyrus
Other categories included: “Country Songs”, “80s Songs”, “Taylor Swift Songs”, “Songs that remind you of the color yellow”, “Beach Songs”
With our playlist in hand, we are ready for a great week ahead!
