Missions 

Istrouma is committed to reaching our community and our world with the love of Jesus Christ!   

All of our mission efforts are funded by Love Out Loud offerings.  Each offering includes a number of different opportunities for us to support financially, but there are also opportunities for us to get involved with hands-on work!  Showing God's outrageous love to a hurting world.  Click here for more information about the Love Out Love offerings.

Istrouma took a team of 30 to Puerto Rico to minister around the island for nine days. We partnered with a team from Syracuse to host a VBS for Mt. Zion Baptist Church in the town of Humcao for 157 kids. We also hosted a community-wide Block Party for 393 people. The Istrouma Sports Outreach baseball team played in parks across the island and ministered to teams from Puerto Rico and Venezuela. God was glorified, the Spirit moved, the local church was encouraged, and over 100 people repented of their sins and accepted Christ as their Savior! Please continue to pray for the Mt. Zion Baptist Church as they seek to disciple new Christians and Istrouma to continue to have a heart for reaching the lost in Puerto Rico.

 

Local Opportunities: Arms Around Baton Rouge

Our goal is to impact Baton Rouge in such a way that if Istrouma disappeared, the city would feel a void.  Through block parties, service projects, and countless other opportunities, Istrouma has the chance to make a difference in our community.  Check out the list on the right for local opportunities to serve.
