Youth Summer Mission Trip 2020

July 26th - August 1st 

Providence, RI. Is the mission field in our backyard! Why did our denomination - the C&MA  - open a mission just 1.5 hours from where we live? Because Providence is one of the least Christian cities in America! Envision Providence is located in the Elmwood neighborhood of South Providence, just a couple of miles south of the prestigious universities and the tourism of the historic district. 

Even though it is only an hour and a half away, it is in many ways a different world away. Elmwood is one of the most ethnically, culturally, and racially diverse neighborhoods in the city and also has one of the lowest median incomes.  At least 70% of children under the age of 6 speak a language other than English at home and are primarily from immigrant or refugee families. Envision Providence is shining the light of Jesus to the community and we get to be a part of this mission this summer.

Will you join us?

We will be working with Rob Childs, the director of Envision Providence to see how we can best serve them and their neighborhoods for Christ. Here are some of the things they do:

      • Community Gardens 

      • Children and youth ministry

      • Homeless ministry 

      • ESL classes 

      • Sports Camps 

      • Construction/renovation for their facility 

      • Prayer and evangelism ministry

 The cost is currently estimated to be $600 for the week. 

 Reserve your spot on the team with a $100 deposit by Wednesday, February 12th
