Student Mission Trips:
Mission Arlington // March 15-19 // Cost: TBD
Mission Arlington has been serving the Lord and the people of the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex 364 days a year for 37 years! Mission Arlington provides health care services, food services, summer activities for children and students, and so many other things– all while sharing the Gospel with the community around them. Our students will work at Mission Arlington doing various projects around the mission complex, and sharing the Gospel with those they come in contact with. The student choir will also perform while there.
West Jordan, Utah // May 28-June 2 // Cost: TBD
Utah has incredible natural beauty with its amazing mountain ranges and is home to some of the kindest people anywhere. Salt Lake City (14 miles north of
West Jordan) is the largest city in the state as well as the world headquarters for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Despite its reputation as a religious city, there is only one Southern Baptist Church per 40,460 people. Sadly, over 97% of the people do not know Jesus as Lord. Our students will be working with the Stottman family hosting block parties, engaging neighbors, and reaching thousands of homes with news about Hope Valley Church.
Miami, Florida // July 20-26 // Cost: TBD
South Florida is home to 27 of the 400 richest people in America. The region is often viewed as a 76-degree paradise, dripping in bling and boasting the best nightclubs, bay-front mansions and flashy cars. It is home to celebrities and pro athletes as well as business moguls and fashion models. But paradoxically, the population of many of its citizens fall below the federal poverty line. Rich or poor, famous or not so much, one thing is certain: The people of South Florida need Christ. In this dense population zone, 79% of the population is lost. Our students will be partnering with church planters to offer something beyond what money can buy, which is real hope in the good news of Christ!
