Once again, Canyon Creek Church sent send a large group of students and adult leaders to Mexico during spring break to build homes for families.
Amor Ministries helps find the families, coordinates the land purchases, and provides our building materials. However Canyon Creek high school youth organize the trip, and each one must raise about $750 in order to go. This year's trip took place April 4-10.
If you are concerned about safety, please read this letter.
It takes the support of the whole church to make this trip happen each year. During the weeksbefore the trip, the mission teamstaffs a table after church on Sunday to let everyone know how they can help through fundraisers, loaning tools, and other important ways you can take part.
Our congregation prays for safety, great weather, good health, close fellowship among the students and leaders, and for participants to feel God's will being done through their hands and hearts.
We need as many hands as we can get to help the crew returning from Mexico oto unload, clean, and put away supplies and equipment. Nothing makes this hard-working crew happier than arriving in our parking lot and seeing wide-awake and full-of-energy people there to welcome them back and help them unload.
There's always a Potluck Dessert after the team returns, to share stories and see pictures of the trip. Bring the whole family! Your younger students will begin counting the months until they are old enough to take part in this life-changing experience.
