A highlight of the year for our high school students is the summer mission trip. In recent years, youth and their adult mentorshave traveled to Dallas, TX, Albuquerque, NM, and the Osage Reservation in Oklahoma. In 2007, a group traveled to the Dominican Republic for a 10 day experience with Ministries in Action. Our mission team traveled to Arkansas in July of 2009 to work with the Youth Works organization again and had an awesome experience. In 2010 the youth traveled to St. Louis to help people in the inner city area and will work with youth from other states through the YouthWorks organization. In 2011 the youth traveled to Ft. Collins, Colorado, to participate in Group Works, "Week of Hope" camps in Ft. Collins where they spent three special days working with mentally and physically handicapped youth and adults at several sites.
Plans are currently being made for the 2012 mission trip to Joplin, Missouri, where rebuilding is underway after this past May's devastating tornado. More information will come soon.
