Mission Upstate and Mission Lowcountry

We are partnering with local churches through service projects and helping put on a summer camp for kids in the area. We, as a church, are supporting the local churches in their vision to make disciples by providing short term teams to help facilitate activities each week. Whether you are a family group leader, sports coordinator, or part of a worksite, you will have the chance to interact with and build relationships with people in the local community each day through the activities you take part in. A week spent away from the comfort and familiarity of home will reframe your spiritual mindset and compel you to live a life more fully devoted to Christ’s cause instead of your own.

More Information and Application

When applying, students are only selecting dates they are available to serve on a mission trip. Based on availability, staff will determine placement on either a Mission Upstate or Mission Lowcountry trip. Most students will have the opportunity to be part of both trips during their time in Forge.

Student Missions Applications will open at Winter Weekend (Feb. 7).
