The last Sunday of every month members of the Sr. High Sunday school class deliver bags of food, prepared and provided by PATH to residents in the Salvation Army's William Booth apartments on Golden Road. It is a rewarding, fun and certainly not time consuming ministry; great for those of us who may not have an abundance of time to spare but want to get involved. In this ministry a single hour makes a big difference in people's lives! After delivering the bags, we eat lunch together at a local restaurant. Lunches are dutch treat, but scholarships are available if needed.

Upcoming Mission Projects

This Summer Sr. High EYC will travel to the Windy City of Chicago for a week-long urban mission project. We will work with a worldwide mission organization, YouthWorks, who partners with in-place non-profits and religious organizations to make a serious difference in the lives of the poeple of inner-city Chicago. From working with the homeless, volunteering at a neighborhood children's mission, or serving in a soup kitchen this trip promises to open the eyes, move the heart and stir the spirit of all who participate toward the call of christ on their lives. Not to mention we'll also take in some of the best Chicago-type sites, sounds and flavors! Please see the flyer at the bottom of the page for more registration costs and information.

June 7-13, 2008 are the dates for a combined family and Jr. EYC mission trip to Antigua, Guatemala. The goals are to improve the physical plant of La Manchen Orphanage in Antigua and to offer support to the resident girls. The project is a continuation of previous work done at La Manchen. This trip will be an incredible opportunity for service and immense spiritual grouwth for all who participate. For more information please contact Bobbie Schoeder at the church.

Past Mission Projects

In 2006, the youth of Christ Chruch joined a Youth With A Mission (YWAM) group from Denver to work in and around Lake Charles, Louisiana. Clean up efforts are on-going from Hurricane Rita, known as the "Forgotten Hurricane." Please click here to view pictures of this trip.

During Spring Break, 2007 we traveled to Bay St. Louis, MIssissippi to continue aid to victims of Hurricane Katrina. Our host was Christ Episcopal Church. View pictures from this trip here.

In summer 2007, the Sr. EYC went to Jalonga, Dominican Republic and partnered with the national diocese of the DR to help continue construction on a community center in the village of Jalonga. The trip was an awesome experience for all those who participated. To see pics from the project, please click here. Jalonga 2007

Also in summer of '07 the Jr. EYC headed to Sewanee, TN. In Sewanee, the youth partnered with Housing Sewanee, Inc. an organization of the Outreach Department of the University of the South. Since 1993, Housing Sewanee has built one home each year for a local family in need of decent housing. Approximately 80% of the work completed on the 14 homes has been done by young people ages 13-22. The youth of Christ Church began framing on this year's home. They constucted interior and exterior support structures such as headers, T's and corners. Please click here to view pictures from this terrific week on the mountain.
