What will we be doing?

• Outreach projects in local neighborhoods

• Serving in community missions projects

• Building relationships and ministering to underprivileged kids

• Supporting local churches and ministries in their ongoing work

This trip is more than just a week of service—it’s an opportunity for our students to:

• Grow in their faith by stepping out of their comfort zones and depending on God in new ways.

• See what it truly means to love God and love others through hands-on ministry.

• Understand the heart of missions—that it’s not only about blessing others, but also allowing God to shape our own lives as we live out the Gospel.

Trip Details:
📅 Dates: August 15–22, 2026
📍 Location: Chicago, Illinois
💲 Cost: Approximately $1,000 (includes housing, food, and transportation)
🎟️ Extras: Additional personal cost for optional activities such as sightseeing or attending a *Chicago Cubs baseball game.

This will be a life-changing experience for our students. Missions is not just about going somewhere far away—it’s about learning to live on mission every day, wherever God has placed us. By serving in Chicago, students will gain a deeper understanding of how the church can impact communities and how they personally can make a difference.
