Urban Resurrection In The Grove

Team Description

Urban Resurrection (URez) invites you to discover why there’s no place like “Da Grove”. Located in Miami’s historical Caribbean Island community of West Coconut Grove, URez has an incarnational lifestyle and assumes a relational posture toward evangelism, discipleship, and leadership development. SummerXchange interns will aid in the development of a solid discipleship ministry focusing on Biblical manhood and womanhood; growing young men and women into maturity leading them from the captivity of drug, alcohol, and sexual abuse into freedom in Christ. These transformations are pursued through methods of Asset Based Community Development and Community Youth Development resulting in empowerment and growth within the context of community.

This internship will focus primarily in helping new believers to grow in maturity and Biblical understanding through life-on-life discipleship and weekly group Bible study; ultimately helping them to apply what they’re learning to life in a street/neighborhood context. It will also include working in the arts, sports and community development initiatives.
