CCBC has a long standing relationship with New Life Church of San Salvador. We partner with their team to translate everywhere we go. As we share the gospel, their staff and volunteers are right there with us to get families and students plugged into their church.

What will my student do on the mission trip?

HSM stays in one or two large groups at all times. We spend our time going to schools to play soccer and basketball with the students. This is a great time to build relationships through sports and evangelize among peers in the stands just like we would here in Texas at our high school sporting events. We also host a festival or “block party” that draws children from all over town. In the evenings we sit together for group teaching and worship. Students are also given discussion time with their small groups to reflect and grow.

What does a normal day look like for a Summit student?

Each morning begins with a yummy breakfast! Students then head to class for the morning. After lunch is another short session. Every afternoon is a little different, usually with either free time (with optional activities) or a group activity. Dinner is a favorite time for students to discuss the sessions from that day. Right after dinner is an optional Q&A time with that day’s visiting speakers. It’s a time for students to ask any questions from class or any other questions the student might have. The evening session starts at 7 p.m. and typically ends about 9 p.m. Every other evening, each small group meets after the evening session and then lights are out at 11 p.m.! As you can tell, each day is packed and students say the two weeks fly by!

What topics are covered?

Summit aims every summer to include new and relevant topics impacting the Christian faith. Some major topics that Summit typically covers are worldview, apologetics, and leadership. Other staples of the Summit track include abortion, gender issues, biotechnology, media, religious freedom, politics, economics, and intelligent design.

Students are still encouraged to bring some cash as there may still be a need for a small amount of cash for things (such as doing laundry onsite) while at Summit, or for off-site purchases.
