Celebrate Jesus Mission - 2012 Mission Opportunities
Florida Space Coast: July 21-28, 2012

Our goal is to help the local church learn about their neighbors and how they can serve them. We want to help people find Jesus and the loving fellowship of a local church while providing “on-the-job training” in becoming a more effective witness for Christ for the volunteers that come on mission. Through CJM we have observed God harvesting new Christians, igniting congregations and transforming team members. People receive calls to ministry, congregations are invigorated as their vision is sharpened to see outside the walls of the church, prayer life is deepened, and neighborhood visitations lay groundwork for ongoing, effective outreach.

Applications are available on their website.
