JULY 27 – AUGUST 1
BROAD STREET MINISTRY in PHILADELPHIA
Join us for a week of service learning and opportunities for authentic relationship building with the people of Philadelphia. Youth from LAC and other churches will be taken to different neighborhoods in the city and discuss poverty, homelessness, hunger, and health care all grounded within a theological framework. A particular goal will be to engage youth with the poor and disadvantaged who are trying to make a difference in their community through social action. Stereotypes will be broken not re-enforced. The week will end in a service of commissioning to send students back to their own communities where faithful transformation may continue. The BSM Youth Initiative is born out of a local congregation that values worship, hospitality, community, diversity, social justice, risk, creativity and the arts.
Cost: $500/student. Includes: food, transportation and simple lodging in the Broad Street Ministry Church.
Sign-Up Deadline: June 1
