SURGE into Missions: Christian Summer Youth Events

Summer, 2012
Lake Junaluska, North Carolina

Micah 6:8 “What does the Lord require of you but to do justice, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with our God.”

In 2011, Lake Junaluska expanded its summer programming to include mission work. The theme for the 2011 summer, SURGE into Missions, gave youth an opportunity to think, learn and experience what it means to do justice, love mercy, and to walk humbly with God. They met and worked with people in need within the surrounding communities during their time at Lake Junaluska. Through our amazing group of summer staff, relevant speakers and dynamic worship, youth learned how to live in their faith.

Check the Lake Junaluska website regularly for more information as the summer gets closer.
