It's hard to believe that we are, once again, approaching the beginning of another IMPACT Term season. I find myself consistently in awe of God’s faithfulness and kindness in continuing to bless and expand our I-Term program. In the high school, we will be sending students back to the tip of South Africa for the 13th year, we will be embarking on new adventures in both Honduras and Brazil, and we will be sending students back to Guatemala and Zion National Park. On the local level, we will be returning to some of our long-standing ministry partners, including Tacoma Rescue Mission, Puyallup Food Bank, Care Net, and Olive Crest. Additionally, we will be establishing new partnerships with Meeker Mansion and Knutson Farms.  

On the junior high level, we are thrilled to announce that this will be our first year running an official I-Term program for seventh and eighth grade students. We will be sending students to Washington D.C., San Francisco, and the Oregon Coast. We will be establishing partnerships with Ali’s Prom Project, New Beginnings, Rainier Rehabilitation, World Vision, and Fisher House to name a few.

As I-Term becomes even more deeply ingrained into the core of CCS, the Lord continues to open doors and create connections around the Pacific Northwest and the world. We truly believe that our students are called to “... be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth,” (Acts 1:8, NIV)—Here, near, middle, and far.
