Mexico Mission - Rancho Milagro
We are celebrating our 11th year of serving at a small orphanage just outside of Ensenada, Mexico. We have the opportunity to spend one week loving and taking care of a group of abandoned and abused children that have become a part of our HCC family, as well as working in a near by neighborhood. This year's trip is scheduled for July 8-16. In particular, we are looking for a number of skilled guys to assist in building a house in an adjacent neighborhood. We are excited about this new piece of our time in Ensenada. Applications for the trip will be available on Sunday morning at the information booth. Completed applications and the $300 deposit must be received no later than Sunday, April 10th. For more information, contact Monica at mexico@hcctoday.com. |
