You may be dreaming of a white Christmas, but the SCSC Committee of the SDB Women’s Society is dreaming of sunny summer days for SCSC 2025! If you’re unfamiliar with the program, there has never been a better time to Discover SCSC 2025! SCSC stands for Summer Christian Service Corps, a service-learning opportunity for college-age young SDB adults. Students will receive training in mid-June 2025, then serve for several weeks at an SDB church. Service opportunities may include helping with worship services, camp counseling, Vacation Bible School, helping with food pantry distributions, prayer ministries, or outreach. The SCSC summer will wrap up at General Conference.
Do you know any young people graduating from high school in 2025, or currently in college? Please prayerfully consider encouraging them to apply. This is a fantastic opportunity for them to grow spiritually, meet new people, try new things, and have fun at the same time! School scholarships are awarded to all participants. Applications for students and churches can be found on the Women’s Society website at https://www.sdbwomen.org/?page_id=802. Applications are due by January 15, 2025!
The SCSC Committee needs your help to let everyone discover SCSC 2025! We have several resources available for you. Every church has been sent a brochure and poster; if you need more, feel free to print them from your copies or using the links below! We also have brief promotional videos that you can show to your church, before or during worship services. The videos are also on the Women’s Society website at https://www.sdbwomen.org/?page_id=1809.
