 Mission Indy is dedicated to equipping Christians to serve others. They do this by encouraging churches to be the hands and feet of Jesus where they are planted, challenging participants’ thinking and paradigms about what God is doing and how they can be engaged, and training participants in skills and methods of sharing life. They believe that groups who spend time with Mission Indy will be motivated to allow God to use them to faithfully display His wisdom and love.
Mission Indy accomplishes their mission through many avenues. They partner with inner city churches and ministries for projects that range from demolition to Vacation Bible Schools. Working a demolition project with Mission Indy isn’t just about the labor, worship or debriefings, but the hope that groups will be motivated to really want to reach out to those in need in their home church, neighborhoods and communities.
In addition to short-term projects in neighborhoods, Mission Indy is in the middle of their 13th summer of service camps. They have worked with over 2600 participants from 11 different states in groups that range in size from 3 to 45. Groups also vary in age from junior high students to college and adult groups. One of their greatest joys is hearing that some of the groups who have participated in Mission Indy have begun similar works of service in their hometowns! Being the hands and feet of Jesus has exploded into similar groups such as Mission Lincoln (Illinois), Mission Toledo (Ohio) and Mission Batesville (Indiana).
How is all this accomplished? Each year, Mission Indy recruits and hires college-age young people to serve as their staff for ten weeks in the summer. Beginning in the fall, Mission Indy visits college and university campuses across the Midwest and sets up displays and shares what they do in classes ranging from missions to sociology. Then, they begin the summer with a staff retreat where they spend the weekend getting to know one another through activities such as rock climbing and repelling, a nature scavenger hunt, and an evening prayer walk This journey of prayer and meditation sets the tone for a summer of depending on God for all things.
