Off to Philly Sunday morning!

This Sunday, August 2 Senior Highs jump in the vans and head to Philadelphia to Broad Street Ministries. Broad Street Ministries (BSM) provides days of service learning and opportunities for authentic relationship building with the people of Philadelphia. An effort will be made to take groups to different neighborhoods in the city and discuss poverty, homelessness, hunger, and health care all grounded within a theological framework. A particular goal is to engage the group with the poor and disadvantaged who are trying to make a difference in their community through social action. Stereotypes will be broken and re-enforced. The week will end in a service of commissioning to send the group back to our community where faithful transformation may continue. The BSM is born out of a local congregation that values worship, hospitality, community, diversity, social justice, risk, creativity and the arts.

Pray for our safe travels, to become closer to God, and pray for the people we will serve. Please come back often to view updates throughout our 4 days.
