WHAT PEOPLE SAY
Christian E., 2017 & 2019
The gratefulness of the families, with the smiles on their faces, when they receive the keys to their new home is incredible. Even though there was a language barrier, it was easy to tell how much their new home meant to them.
Sara, 2016 & 2017
"Doing God's work is always worth it! Those who walk with God always reach their destination. Although you might learn along the way that sometimes the journey is the best part!"
Jacy, 2016
"I am so grateful for the opportunity I had to spend my Spring Break serving others. I hope to take what I learned about selflessness and service in Mexico, and apply it to the way I view others everyday. We are all God's children. We all have something special to offer. There are opportunities to serve others around us - we only need to accept God's call.
