Summer Urban Immersion
for middle and high school students
This ministry stretches our kids. It gets them out of their comfort zones. They focus on building relationships and must face difficult truths about generational poverty. The layers of learning and faith are deep. Our kids see the face of God in the people of Camp Washington, and they are changed.
- Rev. Lori Bievenour, St. Peter’s UCC, Carmel, IN

“The most meaningful experience for me was being with the kids each day and interacting with them. When we serve we think we will deplete ourselves but in ministry and serving for God, we end up fuller than when we started. This is always surprising to me and blesses me so much.”
