Youth Helping others
We believe students can make a positive impact on the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual health of our community!Serving one another gives us opportunities to express ourselves and build our leadership skills. We offer a number of opportunities to serve within our church community: reading scripture in worship, serving communion, representing youth interests on Leadership Council and other church committees and hosting the J.O.Y. Luncheon annually.
In the World
Active youth are eligible to apply for summer service trips. Our 6th-12th graders typically participate in a one-week summer youth service trip.
How is going on a service trip different than going to church, VBS, youth group, etc.? Living together in a faith community, like the one formed during a service trip, allows walls to quickly come down and participants to consider their faith as an every-moment-of-life foundation rather than a compartmentalized dynamic that works itself into life.
In the Community
CROP Hunger Walk
Youth participate in the annual CROP Hunger Walk to raise awareness and funds to end hunger and poverty in the U.S. and around the world.
Cass Community Social Services
On past trips to Cass, we have prepared meals, sorted food items in the pantry, cleaned the kitchen, made mudmats out of recycled tires, sorted paper for shredding/recycling, and distributed donated items in the Globe Building.
