Center for Student Missions

On the 2013 Go & Serve mission trip, our youth participants and adult sponsors will work through the Center for Student Missions organization.  The Center for Student Missions exists to bring students and adults in to the inner city for ministry. Although not a physical place, Center for Student Missions is an experience in which students come to know God in a new way. Center for Student Missions finds places in urban centers for students to use their gifts to promote the Kingdom of God. We do not
create our own projects, but link with existing churches and agencies to help them with their ministries. By participating in people-to-people ministries, students make new friends and become involved in the lives of city dwellers.

As an adult sponsor, I am very excited to take our youth on this trip.  While our youth today have had many more travel opportunities than I had when I was younger, you never know how many have actually been a large urban area like Los Angeles.  The Center for Student Missions organization gives our group the opportunity to work face-to-face with the people of LA is a safe and secure way.  We will get to hear the stories, experience their lives one morning or afternoon at a time, and hopefully make difference one person at a time!
