There are two major ways you can come alongside us and experience LAUP this summer: through visiting sites where students work with urban residents, or through joining us for one of our evening teaching and worship times.
Site visits:
The first is to join one of our student teams at their ministry site. These teams are made up of five to eight students with a designated student or InterVarsity alumni leader, and they spend six to eight hours per day, Monday through Friday, working with various community agencies in South LA, Long Beach, East LA, Korea Town, and Northwest Pasadena. If you'd like to get your hands dirty and see what students are doing, please contact me and we'll set up a time. As all sites are working with at-risk youth and vulnerable adults, communicating with sites ahead of time is necessary, so please contact us at least two-weeks before you intend to visit: Scott_Hall@ivstaff.org
Evening teaching time visits:For the duration of LAUP, all students will gather every Thursday night at 7 pm for a time of testimony, teaching, and training. These times involve student sharing, worship, and teaching on a weekly LAUP theme. Additionally, the first week of LAUP--July 19th through 23rd--is our orientation week, and there is teaching all day and in the evening. Any of these times you'd like to visit would be great, or you can visit us based on the teaching focus of the week as seen in the schedule below:
June 19 to June 23--Orientation week: each day covers a different LAUP focus
June 30--Structures of Power and Spiritual Warfare
July 7--God's Heart for the Poor and Our Repentance
July 14--Crossing Cultures and Incarnational Ministry
July 21--Compassion and Servanthood
July 28--Wrap Up of the Summer/Alumni Mentoring Night
All teaching times happen at the Workman Street Church, located at 2620 Workman Street, Los Angeles, CA 90031.
Feel free to just show up, but if you know you're coming, let me know so that I can look for you and email me at: Scott_Hall@ivstaff.org
