Students are gathered at 6:30am, ready to depart on their adventure.
From June 20-29, 2008 twelve members from our Under The Oak high school ministry traveled to Tampa, FL to participate in a mission retreat sponsored by TEAMeffort. They ministered to an inner-city church, helping to run a Vacation Bible School for the local children. This was also a great opportunity for our students to grow closer together and closer in their relationship with God. See all 1,147 photos on our Flickr and watch the slideshow on YouTube.
Christ came to earth and broke every cultural boundary of the day. Unashamedly, He befriended sinners, loved the unlovable, and healed the broken. His love is radical, liberating, and faithful. He pursues us even in our sinful state. That’s an amazing, beyond boundaries kind of love. We didn’t earn it and we don’t deserve it. Beyond Boundaries takes you into the heart of God to reveal His desire for an intimate relationship with you and to teach you how to love others.
