Adult Mission Trips

Here is a listing of the adult mission trips that GPC has undertaken over the last 5 years:

2015	Oklahoma City, Oklahoma Video	In January, our pastor and two GPC members went with a small team from the Presbyterian Project to Oklahoma City. The Oklahoma City suburbs experienced tremendous loss of life and property from tornadoes that swept through the area in May 2013. EF4 and EF5 tornadoes swept a mile-wide path that extended for 17 miles. The team worked with an organization called Samaritan's Purse to renovate a home damaged by the storms.
2014	DuBois, Pennsylvania Video	In February, five members of GPC went with members of Elfinwild, Parkwood, and Fox Chapel Presbyterian to DuBois, which was hit hard by flooding in June 2013. They stayed at the First United Methodist Church and focused their efforts on indoor work, such as dry wall installation and floor repair.
2013	Staten Island, NY Video	In January, two mission teams with members from GPC, Elfinwild, Parkwood, and Fox Chapel Presbyterian churches went to Staten Island, which had been ravaged by Hurricane Sandy in late 2012. They stayed at Elim Christian Assembly Church and worked to repair homes that were heavily damaged by the storm.
2011	Mars Hill, North Carolina	We worked again with members of other Presbyterian churches to repair and renovate houses in the area surrounding Mars Hill, North Carolina.
2010	Mars Hill, North Carolina Video	Our pastor and nine GPC members worked with members of Shadyside Presbyterian Church, the First Presbyterian Church of Burlington, IA, and Sewickley Presbyterian Church to repair and renovate houses in the area surrounding Mars Hill, North Carolina.
