Our week in Tunica, Mississippi was an incredible one, filled with opportunities to minister in both word and deed to the people of Tunica County. This week was also one in which we were spiritually blessed and challenged to a deeper walk with Christ. These photos will give you an idea of some of the ministry in which we participated during the week.
