SERVE YOUTH MISSIONS

July 6-12, 2025

Each summer hundreds of youth from British Columbia to Manitoba gather for a week to serve a Western-Canadian community. SERVE is like the best parts of summer camp combined with the best parts of a short-term service trip. During the day youth engage in service projects such as gardening, visiting senior’s homes, making meals and helping on the First Nations Reserve. Then in the evenings, they gather to share stories from the day, worship, play wild games, and hear from a dynamic speaker. Overall, through SERVE, youth hope to bless communities by demonstrating the love of Jesus through active service.

Please e-mail Pastor Tyler tyler@goodtree.ca for registration information

Please note: volunteers will need to go through an interview process prior to being accepted to go on the trip.
