Mission M I A M I


Next week will be a new experience for many of our High School students.

For the past two years, we've focused our mission trip energy in Mississippi. Honestly, our students love it there. The hard physical labor and the relationships that have been built have impacted our students in a huge way. Our last 5 mission trips (outside of leaving the country) have been to Bay St. Louis, MS.

Our students will spend next week at our Downtown campus in Miami. We'll be spending the night at the campus and ministering in various ways Downtown and in other parts of Miami Dade County.

Here's a couple of the ways we'll be showing the love of Jesus next week:

Breakfast at Brickell and South Beach-we'll be giving away coffee/donuts/bagels to people who live Downtown and walk to work. The idea is to share the love of Jesus and invite them to check out CF.

Sports Camp: We'll be hosting a sports camp at a church that is on the border of Overtown and Allapattah. There will be 60 elementary school students that will learn different sports and hear about Jesus each day.

Light construction: Our team will also do light construction work on our Downtown, Redland and the public school campus where our Homestead campus meets.

Beach/park outreach: In the late afternoons we'll spend time in parks and at the beach playing pick up volleyball, frisbee and other games with students that are hanging around. We'll also give out free water.

Pray for our team this week. We are really excited about the possibilities and expecting God to move in our team and in the people that we minister to!
