Youth Summer Mission Trips: June 18-26, 2010
Each summer, rising 9th graders through graduated seniors engage in mission outside of the local community. Our trips in the past few years have included repair and maintenance on a camp in New Hampshire, home repair in the mountains on Virginia, and serving in homeless ministries in New York City as well as Washington, D.C. We have also done educational and farm work at the Heifer International farm in Rutland, MA and we served at various non-profit groups serving the poor and homeless people of Nashville, Tennessee. We took an international trip to Costa Rica, taking a fabulous group of 32 people.
The plan for the summer of 2010 is an incredible week of serving at the Heifer International farm in Rutland, MA, with a short stop in Boston to see Blue Man Group and explore the pier. Don’t miss these wonderful opportunities to live out your faith while serving others in far away places.
