Worksites
Service is and always will be at the HEART of everything we do at CHWC. This trip to Rome, however, will look a little different than a normal week at camp. We will still take a few hours to do mission work on select days of the trip. We’ll be Christ-like examples by feeding the poor and extending love to those who need it most. Projects may include things like serving at a soup kitchen or preparing / organizing things at a food pantry.
