ABOUT THIS EPISODE: Mission trips weren’t working for Victoria’s youth group anymore, so she decided to rethink them entirely. Victoria created an experience where students could learn about systemic racism, then serve in their own backyard.
ABOUT VICTORIA: I’m Victoria Hoppes, Director of Youth and Children’s Ministries at Resurrection Lutheran Church in Indianapolis, IN. I most enjoy program development and curriculum writing, engaging youth in spiritual and leadership development, and fully engaging young people in the life of the Church. In my free time, I like to read, write, bake, and have all the cuddle time with my cat Toby. You can connect with Victoria on Instagram @vlhoppes You can read more about this project at https://buildfaith.org/service-learning-trip-for-youth/
