UNITE East
July 15-19, 2024 Bowling Green State University, OH Our church is part of the Northwest Conference (NWC) and the NWC went to Unite East last July! This Covenant High School conference was an incredible week of dynamic worship, impactful speakers, and fun! Past Mission Trips
July 2023 Ecuador Mission TripWe are so thankful to God for getting our group of 13 to Ecuador and back safely and for an amazing experience throughout. We saw God’s provision especially through out travels to and from Mejia. One of my favorite aspects of trips like these are that they push students outside of their comfort zones and create situations where they need to actually rely on God. It is a blessing to be able to lead trips like this and to watch God show up and do things we never thought possible. It was an invaluable trip that we’re trusting God will use to plant seeds of passion for mission work and for the beautiful diversity of God’s Kingdom. ~ Pastor Matt Christiansen
Youth Mission Trip, July 12-21, 2019
We brought 15 students safely out to the Blackfeet Nation in Montana and back in July. It was an exhausting 10 days and we returned emptied of energy but filled with a passion for God's work that we're excited to bring back to our local community. God was at work in the hearts of each of our students and it was a great experience! We were stretched outside of our comfort zones but saw some tremendous growth in the group. We also got to experience the great vastness of our God through the mountains and scenery. A couple highlights from the trip were our day in Glacier National Park and the Big Daddy Weave concert. |
