Jordan Ryan created a brand new slide show for us from a collection of over 2000 photos, over 1000 of which he took himself! With all 7 vans and all 82 team members plus our friends from Baja Bound Ministries and Chepultepec Church as we served the people and joined with them to share God's glory while building four homes for families over New Year's Eve!

URGENT NEWS: Baja Mexico didn't get a break during the recent rain storm. The area where we will be going got hit pretty hard, and damage to the church's community center called, "Village of Hope" or "Campa Esperanza" took roofing damage. In addition, the surrounding areas suffered greatly, where the houses are to be built. Flooding and structure damage all occurred. Please lift up the people in Baja with prayer, that they can hang on and that we can serve them and that God would touch them and give them comfort in these difficult times...

  • When is the trip? Sunday, December 27th, 2008 - Friday, January 1st, 2009
  • Where? Baja Mexico
  • Who? Any teens and adults willing to serve Christ.
  • What? We will bring the love of God to those in need! Our goal is to build up to four homes for seven families in need. We'll be teaching Vocational Bible School (VBS) at a local Children's Home/Orphanage while playing with the kids, and serving the community with love.
  • Why? To help share Christ with so many who do not know Him. We expect God to stretch us as we serve cross-culturally!

    And that's just a taste of what God has in store for us on this journey... We're looking for youths and families and adult volunteers to partner with in becoming one giant team empowered by love and faith to make things happen and serve the church and families down in Baja Mexico! Let's share the good news to all, in what we say and what we do to glorify our God in Heaven!
