Mission Trips to New Orleans & Guatemala
Tuesday, February 22, 2011 at 01:14PM Mission Trips 2011
Just about everyone who goes on a mission trip to serve people in need comes back saying, "I thought I was going to bless others, but I am the one who was blessed." Why is that? There may not be an answer other than to experience it yourself. This year we are sending teams to New Orleans and Guatemala. If you are interested in what a trip like this can look like, check out this VIDEO.
New Orleans (June 5th - June 11th)
After six years of recovery, huge needs remain. We will be working with an orginization called Camp Restore. Participants will be involved in a variety of things. Those with construction skills may do things like working on homes, parks, and other sites. Others with no construction skills may do things like visit nursing homes, assemble care packages, or clean up areas. For more information, check out this FLYER.

Guatemala
1.2 million homes needed in housing crisis. We will be partnering with Habitat for Humanity and Thrivent Builds to build small homes in a mountain village. No construction experience is necessary, just a willingness to serve. Building the village will be Monday-Friday and weekends will consist of free time. Room accomodations will be shared at a nice hotel. For more information, check out this FLYER.
