Over the last two plus years I have had the privileged to
partner with Urban Youth Collaborative (UYC), a ministry committed to
connecting churches to every middle and high school in San Diego. To date over, 50 churches, sponsor and
support about 75 lunch time and after school bible clubs. One of the highlights
of the year is Project 25. It’s a huge service project based off the parable of
the talents in Matthew 25. UYC hands out a hundred dollar bill to 50 clubs.
Each club must read the parable and then come up with a way to invest the money
into a service project. Students then make and submit a 90 second video
documenting their project. On May 24 of this year UYC will host the Project 25
Award Ceremony at the Rock Church. It will be a red carpet affair with; photo ops,
celebrities, free food. Awards go to 1st, 2nd & 3rd
place as well as to the school who’s represented by the most students and the
most viewed video.
More than anything, the greatest part of Project 25 is
the thousands of students all over San Diego campuses doing things for the
kingsdom.
If you are in the San Diego area and are interested in campus ministry please conact Urban Youth Collaborative for more info.
