Wesley Chapel Mission Center

Serve with Wesley Chapel Mission Center’s Summer Camp

From June 20 – July 29, we will be supporting Wesley Chapel Mission Center’s (WCMC) Summer Camp for 75- 100 children going into Pre-K to 5th grade! WCMC ministers with Over-the-Rhine children and families by demonstrating God’s unconditional love, nurturing personal relationships with Jesus Christ, providing social and moral development and collaborating within the community.
