This is a promotional video for the State Campus Ministry Retreat in Arkansas.


Speaker:Josh Ross
Josh works with the Sycamore View church of Christ in Memphis.  He is not the kind of guy you find sitting in his office much as he chooses to live out his ministry around people that Christ speaks of in Luke 4, the poor, heart broken, prisoners, and oppressed.  His life is filled with story after story of how he has been a witness to God's power at work in the inner city.

Worship Leader:Jonathan Woodall
Jonathan works with the Campus Ministry at the Univ. of Memphis and is also the Worship Leader at White Station church of Christ.  He has a great ability to get the audience excited and passionate about praising the Lord.  Jonathan has been involved with leading worship for a long time, and we are extremely excited that he will be not only joining us to lead our worship, but also bringing college students from Memphis with him.

Coffee House Entertainment:

Jeremy Langston
Jeremy is a local talent to Central Arkansas, but one that goes unheard of simply because he has followed the Lords call for he and his wife to be house parents at Southern Childrens Home in Morrilton, AR.  He is a talented singer/song writer & musician that has a perfect style for a coffee house.  I know you will enjoy him!

Cost: $25

Weekend Assignments:

River City Church Painting (40-50 people)
We will be painting the outside of the building.  With about 40 painters it should take about 3 hours.
 
Creative Painting (15-20 people)
We will also be painting the windows in the front of the building and the kids classes with creative scenes.  We need talented artists from each ministry!
 
Cooking (15-25 people)
We, along with members of River City Church, will be hosting a cookout for the entire neighborhood.
 
Canvassing/Advertising (as many as possible)
We want the entire neighborhood to be aware of the good things happenning at River City.  Anthony will guide a group as they talk to people and hang flyers.
 
"Power Hour" (20-25 people)
Part of the canvassing group will provide a VBS-style hour of singing, skits, etc. for the children of the neighborhood.  We need the most outgoing students of each ministry to sign up for this group.
 
"Chem-Free" House Work (20 people)
Some of the people at River City have purchased houses in the neighborhood and remodeled them in order to provide "chem (chemical)-free" housing.  This serves as an outreach and safe-haven for individuals trying to live substance-free.  We will need students interested in doing things like putting up dry wall, interior painting, and, if we're lucky, demolition!



Project: 'Sock It To The Homeless' We will be collecting socks at our Student Centers and Churches all the way up to Retreat weekend where we will be giving these out to the people we serve. 

If you collect anything else we will accept that as well.  We aren't picky when it comes to giving gifts to those who are in need.

Some ideas for other things are mens t-shirts and personal hygiene items.  All of these things are in extremely high demand at River City.
