Youth Mission Trip 2010: Birmingham, Alabama

June 26 - July 3

 

 

Open to youth entering 7th grade through those who have just completed 12th grade.  

 

Participants will have an opportunity to do mission work with young children in a day camp setting and through home repair.  This is an exciting opportunity for youth to grow in their faith through missions in addition to worship activities led by the Youthworks team. 

 

The cost is $248.00 which covers the week at Youthworks in Birmingham.  A couple of full or partial scholarships will be available, but need some gracious underwriters for this to be possible. Transportation costs and other costs associated with the trip for the whole group is estimated to be $3,000 and will be covered through fundraising.  Each participant will be required to participate in fundraising which will focus on sponsor sent out to family, friends, and businesses.   Depending on the success of the sponsor letter campaign, we may still need to do some other community fundraisers.

 

A $60 deposit is due by February 28th from each youth and adult sponsor who intend to go on this trip.  The final balance is due by May 22.

 

Short informational session: Sunday, February 14 @ 12:15 pm in the Upper Room.

If you are interested in going on the trip, please attend this meeting.
