Team Meetings and Fundraisers
Overview
God has provided an opportunity for us to be return the blessing we've received from First Baptist Church in Monterey CA. Pastor Nate and his Wife Charolette have hosted our group on several short trips in the past. His passion for the Lord's word has been a personal encouragement to our group and he continues to work faithfully shepherding the folks of Monterey. Pastor Nate is excited to work with us to reach the surrounding community with the gospel through our VBS program.
We will be assisting with a VBS program Mon-Fri and potentially doing a few work projects on the church grounds. The church is situated conveniently near Main Street in downtown Monterey. Meals will be eaten in the fellowship hall/kitchen and sleeping arrangements will be separately chaperoned on the campus.
Students whose applications are approved by pastor Andrew will work with the team to help raise the funds needed for this ministry!
