Workday Wednesdays

Summer missions for our youth group will look a little different this year, but we’ll be working toward the same goal of serving God and loving people! We would usually spend one week of our summer engaged in missions in another location, but for the summer of 2021 we’ll focus on service projects in our own community – every single week! Each Wednesday our youth group will participate in a mission project right here in eastern North Carolina – from working at an animal rescue to feeding the homeless to cleaning up our own church playground. (Don’t worry – we’ll have plenty of fun along the way!)

We can’t wait to see how God will work in and through our youth group right here in our own backyard! Workday Wednesdays will begin on June 2nd and last through July 28th. To participate in Workday Wednesdays, let Savanna know by Sunday of each week to be sure we have enough supplies and transportation. Commit to participate in 7 of the 10 workdays by May 30 and get a FREE YOUTH SHIRT!!
