7 youth spots available

What you will be doing with YouthWorks:

Our goal (Youthworks) is to help meet the needs of the residents of this community by leading our own ministry projects, as well as by providing support and volunteers to already existing social service organizations. Participants will run a Kids Club and will have the opportunity to work with Outrageous Sports Camp. Kids Club is a hands-on afternoon program led by your youth, offering high-energy games, crafts, skits, songs and interactive lessons all designed to help kids learn about Jesus. Outrageous Sports Camp is a new ministry with YouthWorks designed as an outreach to you ages 10 - 14. Your group will engage community youth in fun, active sports programming to help them develop athletic skills and help them learn basic life skills. Groups will also work alongside numerous social service organizations to support children ministries, the elderly and the homeless. At the beginning of the ministry week, once on site, Adult Leaders will work with the Site Director to separate their participants into work crews. Your group will be mixed with the youth from other groups for their week of service. Due to multiple church groups and varying needs of the ministries we partner with, we cannot confirm until all groups arrive on site exactly what service your youth will be involved with. We ask that you come to serve with a willing and flexible spirit.

Deidre’s notes:

If you enjoy sports and working with teens: this is your site.  Note, however, there is NO guarantee that you will be assigned to the sports’ camp.  Youth will have to be flexible to work where assigned.

 

You must have completed 8th grade to be considered for this site.

 

The cost of this trip is $325.  Some scholarship money will be available.

 

Registration forms must be in and the $50 deposit must be paid by April 29th.  As space is limited, consideration is given to those who are registered first.
