Chicago Church Plant Trip - SW High School
This trip is for high school students who have been invited to participate in this trip. Participation in student mission trips is overseen by each campus student ministry.
Southeast Missions is joining with two church plant partners in Chicago, Illinois to show a group of high school students from our Southwest Campus a glimpse of church planting in an urban setting. The group will partner with Community Christian Church-Lincoln Square and Renewal Church in the heart of Chicago for a few days of service as well as group time with church planters. This is a great opportunity for students to gain first-hand experience in serving a community in Jesus’ name.
Objectives
- Serve Renewal Church of Chicago and Community Christian by assisting with set up and volunteering during their services
- Serve the alongside the churches and their ministry partners in the community
- Meet with church planters in an effort to learn what is involved in church planting
- Bond with fellow students in the group as they learn and live out what it means to be Jesus to a community
