- Our local mission camp is called: BMW (Brevard Mission Week). With BMW we have 150+ students serve during the day locally in Brevard county and then we have a program at night and the students spend the night on our campus.
- We have a group of “student leaders” and "EDGE Leaders" that help us to organize and run our ministry. They are all high school students and the group is called: “Student Leadership Team”
- We have Confirmation each year for 7th graders, and all students who want to take the class, each year in the fall. This year’s Confirmation begins in the fall.
Parents! We love hearing from you! Let us know how we can support you!!
