2020 Florida Transit 2
About the Journey
In partnership with Lighthouse Family Retreat, this team of Transit students and parents will head to a resort on 30A, a state road in Florida known for beautiful white beaches and turquoise water.
We’re looking for a compassionate team with a heart for serving families who have children with cancer. This team will help provide a week of relaxation, relational connection, laughter, and kindness to a specific family as they partner with Lighthouse to create an unforgettable experience.
Team members will serve as the family’s assistants and companions during their stay. They’ll have the opportunity to serve them by cooking, cleaning, sharing meals, taking the kids to Lighthouse activities (talent show, movie night, night of worship, etc.), and caring for the kids while their parents attend a counseling session or enjoy an evening out. Over the course of the week, the team and the family form a truly amazing bond.
If you’re interested in serving these families by helping them take a vacation from the weight of living with childhood cancer, apply now.
Note that parents are responsible for making their own travel arrangements to get to and from Florida.
Please apply for ONE student trip at a time.
Price listed is per person.
New for 2020!
You're busy enough so we're taking some things off your to-do list! We've reduced the number of forms you need to complete by adding a few questions to the global(x) application. Students, if you're under the age of 18 and will be at the time of travel, you'll need a parent present to help you complete this part of the application.
