CTCYM 2010
>> Jan 14, 2010 By: Lindsey BrowerRedefined Beyond Me
Who has God created me to be? Too many of us - young and old - feel unloved and worthless. Too many of us feel like life on earth is hell to be endured until we experience heaven when our time here is complete.
But God tells us something completely different. God expects only great things for our lives, loves us unconditionally and stands forever at our sides. And God created the world with the same expectation - that our lives on earth should be fulfilling.
As Christians, we respond by helping create that heaven on earth for those who don't see it.
Join CTCYM this summer as we redefine our perspective on God's creation and look beyond ourselves to the needs of others.
WHAT IS CTCYM?
CTCYM brings more than 2,500 youth and adults together to put Christian faith into action by repairing and rebuilding homes weathered by age, poverty or natural disaster. Through these efforts, we help repair and rebuild the lives of the people we touch.
CTCYM is brought together by a volunteer task force of students and adults from around the Central Texas Conference. This group identifies a geographic area of need, a focus of study and the steps to achieve both. Then, for two separate weeks, youth groups from across the Conference blend together to become CTCYM Living Centers. Each Living Center is led by a well-trained, all-volunteer staff dedicated to providing participants with a spirit-filled week of service.
Churches and communities around those Living Centers rally to support the youth and adults of CTCYM. Through these local contacts, our teams receive shelter, meet people in need and find other willing to support our efforts. The work we do each day is fed by daily devotions and worship that keep our eyes and efforts pointed toward God.

*Due to the rising cost of transportation, we are including a $50 traveling fee this year.

Sorry for the inconvenience.
