Description

Do you want your students to care about sharing the gospel with their friends?
Do they know how to reach people outside of the church?
This week, students will learn how to spread seeds of the gospel wherever they are.
They will be immersed in an unreached people group (UPG) community in NYC to learn about life as immigrants and what it will take for them to meet Jesus.
