Madison Stone Shares Mission Trip Experience with Lions Club

Members of the Lions Club recently welcomed Madison Stone as their guest speaker. Madison shared highlights from a mission trip she participated in during her spring break to the Dominican Republic.

The trip was sponsored by Georgia Southern Cru, a college ministry that partners with Filter of Hope on short-term mission projects. During the trip, volunteers helped install household water filters for families living in impoverished communities.

She explained that the water filters not only meet an important physical need by providing access to clean drinking water, but also serve as a gospel illustration. Volunteers use the transformation of dirty water into clean water as an analogy for Christ’s forgiveness and spiritual cleansing.

Reflecting on her experience, Stone described the trip as both rewarding and humbling. She encouraged others who may be interested in participating in a similar mission opportunity to consider getting involved.

Stone attended the meeting as the guest of Lion Christine Stone, her mother.

The Lions Club thanked Madison for sharing her inspiring story and providing members with a firsthand look at the impact of mission work in the Dominican Republic.
