The 4th annual spring break mission to Boise begins Friday night, March 18. We will spend 2 days (3 overnight) serving the Boise community through various service projects and having massive amounts of fun. We will spend the night at the Biblical Studies Center and use it as our home base. We will also have a spiritual focus to discuss, and pray together throughout our time together.
We ask that you donate to cover cost of food. Any remaining will be donated to Open Hand Combat for mentoring. Bring your contribution on Friday 3/18 .
What to expect: we will work hard and play hard. Everyone will be expected to join in with the team to work at the service projects and to help plan for outreach events. Everyone will also be be expected to help prepare and clean up meals throughout the weekend. As we serve, we become like Jesus. A servant’s heart and a good attitude are crucial. This sounds like a difficult thing, but it is part of what makes this experience both enjoyable and life changing.
