Mission Trips

Yearly mission trips are an offshoot of JCYG and have been a much-anticipated activity for our youth since 2011.  Most mission trips have been through an organization called Group Mission Trips where youth paint houses and build decks (along with various other construction projects) for less fortunate individuals.  Group Mission Trips are held during the summer all over the Midwest with the JCYG attending camps in IL, IN, WI, TN, IA, and WV. While the week is centered around work, the primary purpose is for the youth to create and cultivate a relation with Christ.  Powerful worship services and thought-provoking devotions assist in making the week a life-changing experience for all that attend.  The current plan is to attend a Group Mission Trip every other year while in the off years do local mission work in our community or at Camp Aurora.
