The "Mexico Work Mission" is a hands on mission experience coordinated through Constructores Para Cristo (Builders for Christ), better known as CPC. Any member or active participant in the participating churches, who is over the age of 14, is invited to apply. Experience is not necessary and applicants will be accepted regardless of building skills or physical strength. However, please remember that this is a labor intensive ministry. Not only do members of the parish family build the home, but the parish provides the money for the purchase of materials for the new home.
This is a short, 5-day trip that will change your life. We stay in a Holiday Inn in Piedras Negras, and all our meals are prepared on site.
You can support this mission through signing up to go, praying for the team, and through financial contributions to buy bricks, mortar, windows, doors, roof panels, and a foundation. Our next trip to Piedras Negras will depart on Sunday, May 25. We are seeking one more person to go with us, and we need about $2,500 to complete the purchase of building materials. For more information, contact Beth Adam in our parish office - (830) 249-3228.
