Annual Back To School Jam

Come and be a part each year of a massive outreach taking place on the campus of Coppin State University.  This outreach takes place in conjunction with Feed The Children International.  Pastors and churches come together to meet physical needs and evangelize the communnity.  We come out of the walls of the church to do "real" ministry.  Come and be a part of teaching your church how to reach out.  In that we do it to the least of these, we do it to the Lord.  (Proverbs 19:17, Matthew 25:40)
