Kolby DePratter, a Brewton-Parker College Mount Vernon campus student and president of the college's Baptist Collegiate Ministries, is one member of a mission team sent from Emmanuel Baptist Church (Blackshear, Ga.) this summer. Kolby is pictured third from left in the back row of the above picture.

Kolby writes: "We are working in a very poor part of Istanbul," and asks for "prayer for the parents of the children we are working with and the children themselves."
