MONTROSE — A church group from Spring, Texas, spent the week in Montrose to help the community and enjoy western Colorado.

The 104 teenagers and adults helped with various projects, such as a trash pick-up and Vacation Bible School.

“It is really humbling just to come out here and serve others instead of being served myself,” said 17-year-old Whitney Hill, a member of the Spring Baptist Church Worship Team. “It ends up being a lot of fun because you get to meet people that live here that you would never get to meet before.”
