MISSION OPPORTUNITIES
Mission Teams will accompany Church on the Street staff for a hands-on experience serving the poor and homeless, learning to build meaningful relationships with the most vulnerable of our neighbors, while meeting immediate needs and developing practical skills you can take back to your home community.
Church on the Street offers three opportuntities for Mission Teams:
-
One-Day Mission Trips
-
Weekend Mission Trips
-
Week-long Mission Trips
- ONE-DAY MISSION TRIP
We plan a full day of manual labor at a place of mission, where you will serve the homeless. Our staff will provide the supplies for ministry and all the details. You arrange your meals at nearby food courts or bring food to make your meals where we do ministry. Cost for the one-day trip is $100.00 plus $25.00 per person for your group. Your non-refundable deposit of $100 will secure your place on the calendar.
- WEEKEND MISSION TRIP
Pick a weekend your group can come on Friday night and leave Sunday after lunch. Be involved in our weekend ministries feeding the homeless and caring for the poor. Experience a full weekend of activity including a one-day work project at a nearby shelter. Our staff will be with you for the whole weekend guiding you each step of the way. You will be responsible for your own meals and lodging. We can make suggestions for lodging at a local church or inner city hotel. Cost for the weekend trip is $300.00 plus $25.00 per person for your group. Your non-refundable deposit of $300 will secure your place on the calendar. (We can do an all inclusive weekend trip for you for additional cost.)
- WEEK-LONG MISSION TRIP
A week of service will change your life! Each day is packed full of ministry, training and reflection. Each day balances manual labor with lots of personal touch in the lives of people who make the "streets" home. Your week-long program begins Monday night at 8 p.m. and concludes on Saturday morning. Please eat dinner before your group arrives. Cost for the week is $200 per person plus a $2000 ministry fee. This is inclusive of all meals and housing while serving with Church on the Street. The only thing you will need to supply is daily reliable transportation to and from ministry sites. Due to the intensity of the week all participants must be of high school age or older. Our staff will be with you for the entire week assisting your group to have an experience of a lifetime. Your non-refundable deposit of $500 will secure your place on the calendar. The ballance of the admin fee is due 30 days prior to your trip date.
GROUP HOUSING WHILE SERVING WITH CHURCH ON THE STREET
Church on the Street ministry teams are currently housed at the Savannah Suites, a local hotel in the midst of a poor and homeless community. We prefer to place five people per room if possible. You may request an individual room in writing and pay the extra room costs. Church On The Street will make all the arrangements for the hotel room. You will need bedding for the fifth person in the hotel room. Extra towels, toiletries, shampoo and soap are suggested. Remember, this is a mission trip!
