Have you ever thought about how you can fulfill the Great Commission (Matthew 28:18-20) simply by inviting people to your home? SonCoast Community Church is beginning an organized outreach to the international students who attend our church. We invite you to be a part of this new ministry by being a host family for an international student.

The opportunity is great and the need is incredible! Currently, we have twelve individuals and/or couples attending our church from China. Next to getting an education, the greatest desire of most internationals is to make one close American friend. However, few are successful, and most never get inside an American family's home. Host families have excellent opportunities to fulfill this desire.

The host family provides a caring "home away from home" experience for students from other countries who are enrolled in local colleges and universities, and who, though usually already having housing, would like to build a friendship with a family. As a host, you and your family will learn from them and show them God’s love during their stay in Boca Raton. By your caring lifestyle, conversation and prayers, you will demonstrate biblical Christianity to these students so that each might return to his or her country with a positive view of his or her time in America, and a true understanding of what it means to be a Christian.

If you are interested in being a part of this exciting ministry, please contact the church office.
