Mission trips over both winter break and spring break are a big part of BSU from year to year. In recent years we've traveled to Waterbury, CT; Bay St. Louis, MS; New Orleans, LA; Charlotte, NC; Wilmington, NC; Matanzas and Havana, Cuba; and Comer, GA. While there we take a fun 'day off' in which we explore areas such as New York, the French Quarter, and Atlanta.
Work varies from children's ministry, painting, building, language and social skills with refugees, food preparation, mudding, chopping trees, planting trees, and much more. It's important to be flexible and to be willing to fill in for whatever service is needed.
