INFORMATION

 

 

 

Has the Lord ever placed something on your heart that was calling you to help someone else? And have you ever wanted it so bad and couldn’t find the means to fulfill His calling? Our brother and sister in Christ, Bryson Shake and Elizabeth Lurz, were called to be spring break campaign leaders in Salt Lake City and need your help. With just a small donation of $5.00 you will be able to help them achieve their calling.

 

 

The main mission for this campaign is to work with the Southside Church of Christ and their youth group in Salt Lake City. While the leaders and campaigners are stationed in Salt Lake City, the logistics of what they will be doing involve planning activities for the youth group, interacting with the kids, conducting a vacation bible school, doing maintenance/upkeep work in the church, leading a Sunday worship service and working at a renown children's hospital, Shriners Hospital, by hanging out with the kids there.

During the campaign, the leaders and campaigners are given a free day. On their free day they will be attending Johnson Park, a local snow-tubing resort. Aside from their snow tubing, they will also have an opportunity to enjoy Salt Lake City. Salt Lake City is known for the Mormon Tabernacle Choir and the campaigners will be attending a performance by them on that Wednesday night.

This campaign consists a total of 12 campaigners. This is the cheapest campaign offered with only $400.00 per person. Do the math and that is $4,800.00 in total. The opportunity that this campaign offers with a goal in mind to help the church, kids, and hospitalized children makes the 20-hour drive worth it! So please lend YOUR helping hand, with just a $5.00 donation and help the campaign come one step closer to helping our campaigners get to Salt Lake City.

 

Feeling crazy?

MULTIPLY your donation by $10 and send in a $50.00 donation. Not only will you be helping one campaigner come closer to their goal, but also with the $50 donation, you are progressing the steps to achieve their ultimate goal. 

 


 

HELP THE SPRING BREAK CAMPAIGN MISSION TRIP BE A SUCCESS  

  

As a campaign, we just want to thank you for taking the time to read our blog in hopes of lending a helpful hand to those in need. We just want you to know how precious you are as a child of Christ. Your helping hand will do wonders for our Salt Lake City Spring Break Campaign and we just want you to know how thankful we are for you. The Lord has truly blessed this campaign because of YOU.

 

  While the Spring Break campaigns are guided with the help of the Student Life office, they are student organized and student led. When students solicit support individually and an individual responds, because the person is designating their check for the use of that that individual, the IRS does not consider it a tax deductible gift. For further information regarding this, please visit http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/p526.pdf.
