Another way to map our Mission Trips

With the Kenya mission team leaving today, we thought it would be a fun time to show you another way to see all of the places that Mt. Bethel is going this year.

You can already view all of our off-campus events in a Google Map, and you can even download a file to view them in Google Earth.  Now you can view them using the brand-new Google Earth plugin.

This plugin allows you to view Google Earth content right in your browser, including 3D terrain, buildings, and fun stuff like that.  We’ve added the rest of our 2008 mission trips into a collection, which you can browse below.

You’ll need to install the plugin before they will show up, and the plugin currently only runs in Windows (sorry about that — Mac/Linux support is due in August).  Check it out!

Check us out in Google Maps StreetView!

Google Maps has a popular feature called “StreetView” that allows you to view roads and buildings from ground level.  Today, they added that imagery for the Atlanta area and Mt. Bethel is included!

Check out the church here:

We’ve determined that that images for our area were taken just before Christmas.  Look at this view of the banner in front of the church, then compare it with the christmas banner on the right.  It looks like a match!

Explore the area and see what you can find!
