You may also join the New England Conferences of the United Church of Christ caravan! Participants from Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and Vermont all on buses to NYE together: Imagine!

There are two options: the Express bus and the Service bus.

Put your faith in action with summer mission work on the way to NYE! We will "camp out" at an urban church, worship in a sister UCC congregation in the Cleveland, Ohio, area, do service work in downtown Cleveland, and tour the UCC National Headquarters. The bus will leave on Saturday, July 7th, making several stops in Connecticut. Participants will return on Saturday, July 14th.

The Express bus leaves on Monday, July 9th, making several stops in Connecticut. Participants will return on Saturday, July 14th.
