Student Summer Experience

Empowering the next generation to love neighbors in meaningful ways!

Learn, serve, and worship together

The Bible calls us to love our neighbors as ourselves, but it’s not always easy to know who our neighbors are or how to help them. 

Loving neighbors is at the center of what we do at Community One. We believe that everyone has the power to love their neighbors – especially young people!

The Student Summer Experience with Community One will teach important lessons, skills, and provide real-world examples that students can use to make a difference in our local community. We want to equip the next generation with the knowledge and skills they need to love their neighbors in meaningful ways.
