MEXICO - JULY 13-20, 2024
Appliations for this trip are now closed. The deadline was March 1.
Please join us in praying for the 2024 Mexico Team.
RVCC members have been doing ministry trips to Mexico since 1995, and we look forward to this opportunity to serve again in San Vicente and Colonet, located about 2.5 hours south of San Diego. On this trip we will support the ministries at Casa del Pastor and the churches in San Vicente and Colonet. Casa del Pastor has a medical clinic, an eye clinic, a clean water project, and supports moms and their kids coming from abusive situations. These families live at the Casa for 1-3 years while they get their lives on track, learn about the love of Jesus, find work, and save for a home. We generally help the Colonet church with community events and general construction projects while we build relationships with the church family. Our team usually consists of about half adults and half teens. Parents and teens are encouraged to do this trip together.
We will likely be doing the following activities this year:
Hosting a Quinceanera Party for the 15 year old girls of the Colonet church. In the past, some of our teen girls have participated as well.
Facilitating Bible studies at the Colonet Church and Casa del Pastor.
Hosting an annual pool party/BBQ for the families of Casa del Pastor and Colonet Church.
Building or renovating buildings of the Colonet church.
Helping build a house for one of the moms from Casa del Pastor.
Rejuvenating some of the rooms at Casa del Pastor.
