Students to Serve Tornado Victims in Joplin
From July 4-8 and July 11-15, Christ in Youth (CIY) is leading “Engage the City,” an opportunity for students to serve victims of last month’s tornado in Joplin, Missouri, and learn from the community’s leaders.
“CIY will organize projects, programming, housing, meals, materials, and leadership to help these groups best respond to the needs of Joplin,” the organization writes. “There will be outlets to serve but, more importantly, your students will have opportunities to connect with storm survivors and hear their stories. CIY will handle all the details and connect your group with missional leaders to see how they responded in the first 72 hours, and learn how to best engage people in your own community as kingdom workers, even in times of crisis.”
