03. VISION
Summer Games University is an evangelical experience based on teaching the power of the blood of Jesus Christ to youth and older elementary students.  Summer Games University is an experience where biblical events are shown through demonstrative experiences (such as but not limited to a foot washing service, prayers with the laying on of hands, invitational opportunities to receive Christ as Lord and Savior, and a crucifixion pageant).  Centered on these experiential worship services, pastoral teaching and the leadership provided by a staff of volunteers Summer Games University charges youth to live lives based on the Great Commission of Jesus (Matthew 28:16-20).  Summer Games University will endeavor to be held at historically related United Methodist Colleges and Universities.
