Hello Teens & Parents!
We are SO excited about what’s ahead for our youth program and we want you to be part of it! Whether you’re currently involved or have joined us in the past, this year is shaping up to be full of fun, service, community, and meaningful experiences.
Summer Mission Trip – June/July
Plans are officially underway, and we’d love for your teen to join us! If you’re interested in learning more (dates, location, and details coming soon), please take a moment to register for updates here:
Sign up for Mission Trip info: SIGN UP LINK Registering does not commit you—it just keeps you in the loop! Parents, please let us know if you are interested in attending as an adult chaperone depending on the date. We need ideally (2) male AND (2) female chaperones or we can't go.
This year we'll be asking for a non-refundable deposit of $50 per person for the trip to reserve your spot and show your commitment to attend. The total cost is $558 per person which each person will be responsible for paying. We will be providing plenty of Volunteer hours for fundraisers for campers to "work off" their debt. Your hours and your "cut" of the donations will be recorded. However, no one will be left behind. Financial Scholarships are available for multiple child households or those in need of support. Speak privately with Pastor Brian. Here is the volunteer log chart we will be using.
