CSM
CSM will NOT be meeting on November 22nd due to the Thanksgiving holiday.
High School Students!!! Join CSM on a MISSION TRIP this summer, June 15 - June 21, 2024. We are going to Camp Barnabas. Find out more and sign up at community-church.com/barnabas.
Camp Barnabas seeks to reach those with Special Needs with the Gospel of Christ. Because of the range of disabilities, one of the best ways we can do that is by simply being the Hands of Jesus. The job of volunteers like counselors and barnstormers is to help campers one on one to make them feel at home, cared for, and seen at camp. This is a great opportunity to serve, you will walk away from it humbled, and hopefully, change your perspective of what it means to love others, even the “outcasts” the way Jesus did.
Middle School Students!!! Join CSM on a MISSION TRIP this summer, July 6-11, 2023. Find out more and sign up at community-church.com/minnesota. CSM is inviting Middle School students to join us as we serve the city of Minneapolis while partnering with a local church in the area. We will have opportunities to serve the homeless, kids in the community, and any of the needs of the local church.
