Mission Trips 2023
God calls us to stand in solidarity with the marginalized, poor, and oppressed, regardless of their nationality or country of origin. We recognize that boundary lines are a human endeavor and have no place in the kingdom of God. Therefore, we travel into spaces and places of need to support our neighbors and expand our vision of a whole and just world.
