Summer Service Learning Experiences
Short-term service and learning experiences can have a big impact.
All our service-learning opportunities are designed to help students:
- Discover where God is already at work in communities in need
- Act as the hands and feet of Christ to share God’s love with the world
- Learn that those who seem different are not very different at all
- Practice putting others’ needs above their own desires
- Lean on God to realize their ability to overcome new challenges
Save the date: Service Squad Retreat June 5-7. Registration opens March 1.
How will we serve?
Each day, youth will serve with a different East Bay partner organization. Activities may include packing food boxes, sorting donated clothing, visiting a center for racial justice, assembling hygiene kits, planting, cleaning, serving at a resource center for people experiencing homelessness, visiting with senior citizens, or playing games with local children. Youth may earn up to 15 service hours.
What will we learn?
Throughout the week, youth will learn about some difficulties experienced by our local neighbors and the many ways we can share God’s love within our community! We hope this week will inspire youth to serve others throughout their lives.
*Due to the team-oriented nature of this program & limited space, youth should plan to attend all days of camp. Contact us for special circumstances.
