Mexico Mission Trip
TRIP DATES: JUNE 11-17, 2023
WANT TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE THIS SUMMER?
JOIN US FOR A MISSION TRIP TO MEXICO
New Life is partnering with Youth With A Mission (YWAM) to build a home for an at-risk family in Mexico. We are also able to partner with the Women's Shelter, Mujeres Nuevo Comienzo that we have worked with for many years. No experience is necessary for either service opportunity, but each will be sure to give you an experience you will never forget. Together we can make a difference!
This is a whole church project. Those of us not going can help by contributing towards the materials to build the houses and also to partner with other local causes we support. We are so grateful to all who gave to our Giving Tree during the Christmas season that helped raise a portion to support this trip. If you didn't get a chance at Christmas, there is still an option to participate if you like.
Those going on the trip will be paying their own way — $400/per person plus airfare, or about $700. A $200 deposit is due with your completed application by March 19, 2023. The balance of $200 is due by April 16, 2023. Below the pictures you will find an FAQ sheet with lots of helpful information, links to all the forms you’ll need to complete, and links to submit your deposit or pay your trip balance.
Please don’t hesitate to contact Jim Thornton at clownboy4me@gmail.com if you have further questions or need personal assistance.
When a family in mexico receives a home:
- It breaks the cycle of poverty in one generation, by setting them ahead economically.
- Children of parents who own a home are 3 times more likely to stay in school than those who don't.
- Health benefits: Home ownership reduces respiratory diseases and other sicknesses.
- Socio-economic health: It changes the parents' and children's outlook on the future.
- Spiritual Impact: People are ministered to with the two handed gospel - physically and spiritually.
