Summer Communities of Service What if you could spend the summer discovering what it really means to love?
You know the kind of love that comes from serving side by side with someone who is nothing like you, cooking a meal for a homeless woman, negotiating how you share living space with people you don't even know. And maybe even confronting the challenges and triumphs life throws your way and then reconciling them with what you believe about God.
Certainly not a typical summer. And one you won't easily forget. Check out stories and images from summer 2010!
The Alliance of Baptists, in collaboration with the United Church of Christ, offers young adults age 19-30 a life-changing summer internship opportunity for 2012. The Summer Communities of Service program is a mission-learning opportunity that places young adults with host Alliance of Baptists or United Church of Christ congregations. Young adults live in intentional Christian community, serve as volunteers four days a week in a hands-on capacity with a local ministry of an existing Alliance or UCC mission partner or with a community agency committed to social justice. Participants receive a stipend, assistance with food and transportation, housing, and health insurance if not already covered.
