TEAMeffort

Organization Description: 

TEAMeffort is a non-profit inter-denominational Christian mission organization that has been providing life-changing, eye-opening, faith-building mission experiences for youth for over 15 years. We offer more opportunities than ever for youth groups to put their faith into action through challenging and rewarding mission projects such as repairing and renovating homes for families in need, building mission and ministry facilities, leading children’s programs, working at homeless shelters, responding to natural disasters and reaching out to individuals and communities through Christian service. TEAMeffort will have 27 camps located all over the United States and Overseas and have brought over 50,000 youth and leaders from thousands of churches and organizations together to serve.
TEAMeffort Mission camps are designed to be a mixture of hard work, spiritual growth and good, clean, adventurous fun. Youth groups can expect to work hard, play hard and laugh hard. It is our desire that at the close of each mission camp the youth will return to their churches in more cohesive groups, sharing in memories that will last a lifetime and enjoying a renewed excitement about what Jesus Christ is doing in all of their lives. For staff, we get the privilege and blessing of sticking around to do it all over again each week of the summer!

Mission Statement: 

TEAMeffort is a non-profit, inter-denominational Christian youth mission organization dedicated to providing opportunities for both youth and adult leaders to reach out to others through Christian service and live out a passion for God, in the context of “putting our faith into action.”

The TEAMeffort Youth Group Mission Retreats are designed to be a mixture of hard work, spiritual growth, and good, clean, adventurous fun. It is our desire that at the end of each mission retreat the youth will return to their churches in more cohesive groups, sharing in memories that will last a lifetime and enjoying a renewed excitement about what Jesus Christ is doing in all of their lives.

Organizational Statement of Faith: 

We believe that there is one God eternally existing in three persons: The Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. We believe that the Bible is God's written revelation to man and that it is verbally inspired, authoritative and without error in the original manuscripts. We believe in the deity of Jesus Christ, His virgin birth, sinless life, miracles, death on the cross to provide for our redemption, bodily resurrection and ascension into heaven, present ministry of intercession for us, and His return in power and glory. We believe in the personality and deity of the Holy Spirit, that performs the miracle of new birth in an unbeliever and indwells believers, enabling them to live a godly life. We believe that man was created in the image of God, but because of sin, was alienated from God. Only through faith in Christ alone for salvation which was made possible by His death and resurrection, can that separation from God be removed and eternal life secured.
