During Hometown Missions, we reach out in love and service to the world. Some of our work will take place on an international level, and some will happen on a local level. On Friday night the group will gather at the Church of the Good Shepherd, Augusta, for a meal-packing event in partnership with Rise Against Hunger, an international hunger relief organization. During that event we plan to pack 15,000 meals, at a cost of only 29 cents per meal! Then on Saturday, participants will divide into small groups to take on local projects in the Augusta area. Some of these projects will involve working with local organizations, and others will involve service for individual members of different Augusta Convocations.
On Saturday night we will take time to play, relax, and worship together, while also processing the experiences of the past two days. Then on Sunday the group will worship at Good Shepherd before finishing with lunch and dismissal into the world!
This event will offer service hour opportunities for those who need those hours for their schools. Come and join us, offer your gifts to the world, and fulfill a school requirement as well!
