419-562-5355. 4 Brooklyn Priest, of Plymouth, and Sammy Stepp, of Columbus, paint a mobile home on Ohio 98 near New Washington, dave polcyntelegraph-forum TeenServe Continued from Page 1A Heather Braun said. "They're learning to put others before themselves." Fifty-seven houses were selected to receive improvements, mainly a fresh coat of paint, Heather Braun said. All work is free to recipients. Life Point Church and area businesses raised $28,000 in less than a year to pay for the paint and wood supplies to support the various projects.

TeenServe pays for the rest, including meals, activities, national worship speakers and a live band. "The support from our church has been amazing," Chris Braun said. "Everybody stepped up and got plugged in somewhere (as volunteers)." Tuesday, crews were well underway on their various projects. Four crews worked in the Mansfield area, mainly building handicap ramps for wheelchair-bound residents. The Brauns' group worked on a one-story home on Riggs Street in Plymouth belonging to Eric and Linda Hill.

Teens scrapped off old paint, washed the house down and gave it a fresh coat of glossy white paint. Heather Braun's niece, Sammy Stepp, 12, of Columbus, landed in that crew by happy accident. Like most of the youth group participants, the youngster said she took on her first mission trip as a way to connect with God and strengthen her faith. She's also spending the week getting to know the three other teens in her work crew, all from other areas of Ohio and the U.S. It didn't take long before they all found a common interest ninjas.

"We've already taken ninja pictures," Stepp said. "We call ourselves 'The Working Ninjas' because we're super fast and super cool." They've also been mouth High School, where they sleep on air mattresses. In the evening, they participate in a worship service, led by a national speaker, and listen to live entertainment. This year's speaker is renowned Christian and road pastor KP Westmoreland. New Zealander Phil Joel provides contemporary Christian music.

The Brauns came across the program last year while taking a Life Point group to a TeenServe mission trip in Indiana. As luck had it or by design, as Heather Braun likes to say the organization had a rare opening for a host city in their 2014 program. They signed up. Although many youths come from big cities, the programs themselves seem to be held in smaller communities, such as Plymouth, where organizers feel the work has the biggest impact, Heather said. "It's probably a onetime thing for this area," Heather said.

"(TeenServe) has only visited Ohio twice and it was nowhere near here. "People in the community get to see that we're living out our faith." kdurbinnncogannett.com 419-521-7205 Twitter: njKaitlinDurbin BUCYRUS POLICE ARRESTS A 22-year-old man was arrested for domestic violence and was taken to the Crawford County Justice Center to be held for a court appearance. 3:57 p.m. INCIDENTS Officers assisted a resident in the 1200 block of East Warren Street who was having issues with a squirrel that had become trapped. 11:33 a.m.
