People need to
experience living proof of a loving
God all over the world – our own
backyard is no exception!
This summer, the Student Ministry
will be focusing on reaching
neighborhoods all around the
Sagemont area. We’ll spend an entire
week devoted to being living proof
and announcing the Good News to
those nearby. Students will stay
overnight at the Youth Building and
go out into surrounding areas to
serve our community during the day.
Whether your student is in junior
high or high school, they’ll be
blessed enormously by serving during
the Houston Mission Project June
17–21.
The cost for the week
is only $100 per student.
