The Middle School Youth travel to a city with a major league baseball team. The draw is the baseball game but the youth soon realize the best part of the trip is serving others. We have worked with ministries and people in Atlanta, Miami, Washington, DC, Tampa, and Boston. The whole trip centers around middle school youth preparing themselves for when God calls then to serve.

Salkehatchie Summer Service is a group of camps all over the state of South Carolina where youth over the age of 14 repair homes. For the past several years we are participated in the Shaw/Dalzell camp outside of Sumter, SC. The days are long and hot but through all the sweet and sores youth experience the wonder of God by finding they have the energy and skills needed to fix the homes. Plus watching joy and hope in the homeowner is a real blessing.

Every other summer (even numbered years) the High School Youth participate in an international mission trip. Over the years we have traveled to Belize (four times), Ecuador, and Costa Rica. On all the trips we work along side a community helping them accomplish tasks that they see as important. Most of the youth find spiritual fullness of those in the community we visit because of their trust and faith in Jesus. The trip often open our youth eyes to the blessings they have received and the responsibility they have to the world community.

Our local monthly mission project is provided a big breakfast once a month for the residence at Star Gospel Mission in Downtown Charleston. For the past 6 years a youth has made sure a breakfast has been provided with the help of the entire congregation. Different groups and families from our church sign up to serve each month. This project is completely run by a john Wesley Youth. Over the years our youth leaders have been Eli Stullenbarger, Andrew Murphy, and Griffin Miles.
