AUSTIN, TX
expand your neighborhood in austin
Keep Austin Weird. The City of Austin’s motto is lived out through its artistic culture and love of food trucks. But with any rapidly growing big city, there are also underserved neighborhoods.
Through our local partnerships, students will learn how the church is responding to these needs in very real ways.
Your team will serve in a variety of local ministries, ranging from a food pantry to a rescue mission.
Students will also get the opportunity to explore Austin during our Adventure Race and they’ll kayak through historic Lady Bird Lake.
Why we love serving jesus in this neighborhood
