Fundraising Events
If you are interested in fundraising for summer trips, retreats throughout the year, camp, etc., we have a number of fundraising opportunities! There is a binder on the desk of the Welcome Center with all of the sign-ups available. Sign up now.
We’re grateful for all of the volunteers who have donated their time and gifts to the fundraising ministry, to allow our youth and families further opportunities to grow in faith and relationship with God and one another.
All of our fundraisers are put on by volunteers, and we could not do it without them! THANK YOU!
