Mission Trip
MISSION TRIP 2024
SERVING LOCAL COMMUNITY
LARGO, FL
All current 6th-11th grade (2023-2024 school year) students are invited to an unforgettable experience serving the surrounding communities right in our backyard. This year, Anona Youth will be partnering with local organizations to help OUR community right at home! Our hope is to show the impact that our students can make right here at home with the local organizations we partner with year-round. We’re providing the opportunity to put your students’ faith into action and return home with lifelong memories and a renewed excitement for Jesus Christ. We’ll still have all the elements that an “away” mission trip includes, with the benefits of impacting our own families in the community!
We know that trying something new can be intimidating. If you have any questions about our at-home Mission Trip, please don’t hesitate to reach out to our Youth Director, Megan Trunzo, by email or phone (x300)!
