Imagine a world without childhood cancer.
Until then… Blue Skies.
Blue Skies® is a ministry that offers hope through beach camps and mountain getaways to lift families above the clouds of childhood cancer.
More than 17,000 children are diagnosed with cancer every year (that's 47 families who are learning the heartache of childhood cancer each day) and we want to share the hope of Jesus with as many of these families as possible.
When a child is diagnosed with cancer, the entire family is thrown into the storm of pediatric cancer - parents grow weary; siblings take a “backseat”; finances are stretched; relationships become tense; faith and hope falter.
Blue Skies is a ministry that offers hope through beach camps and mountain getaways to lift families above the dark and stormy clouds of childhood cancer. Our mission is to bring the hope of Christ to families living through the challenges of pediatric cancer so that children who are sick will laugh and play and feel “normal” again; that siblings will feel cherished and enjoy uninterrupted family fun; that moms and dads will grow strong and begin lifelong friendships with others on Kindred Journeys; and, most importantly, that everyone at Blue Skies will experience the love of our Heavenly Father.
These domestic mission trips are staffed by compassionate volunteers who share the love of Christ through caring for the families we serve.
We long for the day when childhood cancer is no more. But until then… there is Blue Skies.
