Copper Canyon – Northern Mexico (Team size limited to 11)

Over the last couple of years we have been working in a very remote part of Copper Canyon to bring the gospel to the Tarahumara people.  This work has included food and clothing distribution, medical assistance, and the construction of a boarding school.  The school houses 40-50 students and teaches children reading, writing, basic math, etc. as well as sharing the gospel.  Much work lies ahead to complete this outreach site, in addition to preparing for the next.  These trips blend strenuous work in difficult conditions with an amazing opportunity to love on a bunch of awesome kids and their families, all with the aim of spreading the love and gospel of Jesus further into the darkness.

Tres Rios Mexico 2009 trips
Family Friendly ministries in the beautiful mountains of Mexico!
     Cost -  $550
     Dates
         August 1 - August 15  
August Tres Rios trip is cancelled (6/23/09)
         September 5 - September 19
 
Tres Rios is a village of approximately 1,000 people nestled in the pine-covered mountains of northwestern Mexico, at about 6,000 ft elevation.  A small Alliance church was started in Tres Rios 30 years ago, but there has never been a full-time pastor there and the church struggles to remain alive in this remote location.  In fact, they have asked for our help to re-vitalize the church through evangelization, discipleship, and teaching them to seek out the thousands of un-reached Indians who live in the surrounding mountains and canyons.  There is a great need for the Gospel of Christ to be established in this village.

Our mission to Tres Rios will take us across difficult and dangerous 4-wheel drive roads through rugged mountains and across rivers.  Those who choose to be a part of this team will have an opportunity to live in a remote Mexican village with huge spiritual needs.  We will sleep in sleeping bags in tents or on cement floors.  There will be water available, intermittent electricity, and perhaps even a shower!  Outhouses are standard operating procedure in Tres Rios.  Weather will be unpredictable: it may be cold and wet or hot and dry.  We will have great opportunities to learn to love and serve our Lord by loving and serving His people, those on the team and those in the village.  The team will need to be flexible, willing to serve, and teachable.  (Hiking is not required).  We will use several approaches to evangelize and disciple children, teens and adults. We will use games, music, VBS-type activities, men’s and women’s classes, door-to-door visitation, sports, movies, etc.  There will be a small work project also.
