Have you ever wondered how to get your entire church involved in reaching your community's secondary school campuses?
Right now in San Diego there is a coalition of churches who are answering the call. For example, Mike Gilson is the associate pastor at Pathways Community Church in Santee, California. The congregation has partnered with the Luis Palau CityFest to serve San Diego schools through their "Season of Service" in the days leading up to the evangelism festival in September. Take a look at the video to see what they are doing.
Work projects were scheduled on August 21 on 28 school campuses across San Diego County! Adults, youth and even children, as well as a team from the U.S. Navy, are serving the schools together. Hundreds of churches will be volunteering thier time and materials to clean up, landscape and build projects. It is a win-win situation for the church and the school districts, as the projects were ones that the local school administration asked to have completed. If you are local to San Diego, you or your church can sign up for a school campus near you. Or, learn more about the effort by going to www.adoptschoolssd.org.
