Support our Youth Mission Trip

Twelve youth and four chaperones will be going to Pickford, Michigan, in July. They will be working with more than 300 high school students helping low-income residents with home repairs.

But they need your help! It is 960 miles round trip to and from Pickford, Michigan and they would like you to support them by "Buying a Mile." Each miles costs $5.

If you sponsor the group, you will receive a note from them while they are in Pickford. When they return, you will be invited to a lunch to hear stories and see photos from their trip.

Let's get to Pickford and back!
