May 25-Jun 5, 2013 Colombia
Our Local and Global programs partner with community organizations and missionaries in local neighborhoods and around the globe. As a volunteer, you will have the invaluable experience of helping others and learning from people of various cultural and social. There are approximately 13 million people in the city of Bogota, Colombia. A city with every social status, background and lifestyle you could imagine. Craig Lingo teaches, "If your church is going to reach Bogota we must look like Bogota." His congregation, ConBiba has gone beyond trying to bring people in and "Christianizing" them to going into the darkest places to be light.
Jun 23-29, 2013 YoungLives Camp
YoungLives, is a ministry to a young life of a teen mom and their children. Here is the life of one of the teens that attended the camp last year…Amanda (named changed to protect her true identity) has been prostituted by her mom since the age of 12 to support her mother’s drug addiction. Trina (again her name has been changed) is caught up in gang activity and now faces cervical cancer. But this past summer at Michendoh Camp in Jackson, Michigan, these teen moms and many others found hope during a YoungLives camp — marking the end of a long journey of survival and the beginning of living life to the fullest through a relationship with Jesus Christ. Camp was comprised of 60+ teen moms with over 60+ infants from across the country — including Kentucky, Tennessee, Ohio, Illinois, Missouri,and Michigan — who laughed, rested and bonded together while listening to a message of love and hope. Many of the girls were accompanied by mentor moms — women who come to camp with the young moms and are mentors for them back home. There were 40 leaders and mentors in all, along with a team of Young Life staff assigned to the camp. A team of 100 volunteer childcare workers also served to make an incredible week for the young mothers and their children.
Aug 4-9, 2013 Royal Family Kids Camp Trip
Imagine not having any certainty in where you will sleep tomorrow night. Imagine knowing the only way you've been shown love is through abuse or neglect. This is the life of a foster child. When kids are placed in foster care, there is confusion, anger, fear, and lack of trust with any adult. Royal Family Kids' Camp is a national/international ministry that has been around for 28 years, serving foster kids ages 7-11 to provide a week-long camp of showing God's love, providing positive memories, and giving hope to kids currently in the foster system.

Their mission is to establish a community of believers, each equipped and committed to minister effectively to those around them. The services that our team will provide will open doors to areas that have not been receptive to hearing the gospel before.
