We have $100,000 to raise for our mission!
Will you be a Mission Sponsor?
For over three decades, The Congregational Church of New Canaan has been committed to creating a community where youth can experience and share the love of God. Together, we walk with Christ all year to nurture a youth ministry marked by love, covenant, and active participation.
This February, 105 of our YG Fish will embark on a mission pilgrimage to Waco, Texas, to partner with Mission Waco and Grassroots in serving those in need. This year, our work will focus on building tiny homes for the unhoused population of Waco and supporting critical home repair projects for community members facing poverty. Each afternoon, our youth will also lead Bible camps for local children, fostering connection, faith, and hope across generations. Mission Waco has been a beacon of transformation for the Waco community, creating sustainable solutions for housing, education, and community empowerment. We are eager to support their work!
YG provides a space for the Spirit to move, offering our youth the chance to deepen their relationship with God and one another. Today, we humbly ask you to join us to walk with us as a mission sponsor, offering your prayers and resources to support this initiative. Our goal is to raise $100,000, which will ensure that every mission fish can participate, regardless of financial circumstances, while also covering housing, food, and materials for the projects – which includes the sponsoring of three tiny homes. Your support as a Mission Sponsor will directly contribute to this effort, making it possible for our youth to live into their calling as agents of change.
To contribute, you can mail a check to the church or donate online at www.godsacre.org/give. Please designate your gift as “YG Mission Sponsors.” Every gift, no matter the size, brings us closer to our goal and helps transform lives—both in Waco and within our youth group.
God’s work can only be accomplished with the help of volunteer groups like YG—and we cannot do it without sponsors like you!
