Mission Trips
Service and spiritual development
The Jr High Mission Trip is usually a trip nearby for 4-6 days in June. One of our favorite locations is Cortez, Co.
The Sr High Mission Trip is usually held in July, and involves service projects such as cleaning, painting, yard work, feeding the homeless, and working at food banks. Of course, we also make time for fun activities and sightseeing. Past trips have visited Lame Deer, MT; Twin Low, ID; Puerto Rico (2018); Portland, OR (2019); and coming up in 2020, Alamosa, CO.
Our main fundraiser for the youth mission trips is the annual Chili Bowl, held on Super Bowl Sunday.

Local Service Projects
Serving, Loving, Caring in our community
Our heart of serving, loving, and caring doesn't just apply on our annual mission trips, but year-round in our own community! The youth participate in various service activities, building the community through our younger generations.
Fun
Friendships, laughter, & fun
Outside of Sunday School and mission trips -- and during those activities too -- the youth love to hang out, build relationships, and just have fun!
