 EmilyEMILY'S MESSAGE  
Are you looking for an exciting way to get involved in short-term missions? Metropolitan Ministries' Urban Immersion (July 14-17) initiative provides groups a unique opportunity to be immersed in an urban environment. The group will be exposed to true homelessness and poverty, while learning ways to help individually, as a church, and as a community.

The experience includes:
  • Face-to-face ministry with homeless and at-risk clients
  • Serving off-campus with local partners
  • Evening service opportunities
  • Praying for families in need
Students will go home at night and return to church in the morning to have a full day of service within our community. This mission week will take the place of our usual "Thursday Serve Day" during the summer. These four days will be trips back and forth to Met Min. We will have daily drop off and pick up times at the Magnolia Building. We want to encourage students to participate in the whole 4 day experience.

If your student can't attend a day or two, we are not able to subsidize the cost. Let us know in advance if your student is not able to participate on a specific day, otherwise we will assume your student will be a part of the full 4 day experience. The cost for 4 days is $85 per student (no overnight). Click here to sign up.

Middle School Bible Study  
This summer, Ashley will take the middle school students on a journey through many books of the Bible. We will look at questions about sanctification, convictions and idolatry through analysis of Bible verses, a chapter of Psalms and a significant Bible story. Join us 6:30-8 p.m. Wednesdays from June 11 to Aug. 6 for Biblical knowledge and tons of fun!

 

High School Bible Study 
Tuesday nights this summer, the high school students will dive into the book of Ecclesiastes, which has long considered to be a great book for people who want to grow in their faith to read. We will ask the hard questions and get the answers which have helped people for thousands of years. Come to Blake & Kristin Morris' home (3409 W. Corona St. Tampa, FL 33629) between 6-8 p.m., dinner included. Hope to see you there!
