Trip Details
Join us for a one-day short-term mission trip to the Texas-Mexico border, where we will partner with a local church to host a Christmas festival for the city. This family event will include a cookout for the community, Christmas craft and game stations, and a special nativity presentation featuring local children. Together, we’ll help the church create a joyful celebration that not only brings the community together but also shares the true reason for the season—Jesus. This trip is a meaningful way to encourage and support the church in their ongoing ministry while spreading the hope and love of Christ during the Christmas season.
