| Common Questions |
Will we be mixed with other short-term mission teams?
No. Although our ministry base is large and we can accommodate more than one short term mission team at a
time, you will be your own mission team and will have your own kitchen, dining room, meeting room, dorms,
showers, bathrooms. You will also serve and minister as your own mission team at your own church.
What experience do you have in working with short-term mission teams?
We have 17 years of experience in working with short term mission teams. Thirteen of these years have been
spent as long term missionaries, and four years prior to being long term missionaries we lead 2-3 short term
mission trips to Mexico per year. We have led youth group mission trips, family mission trips, adult mission trips,
church mission trips, and mixed groups having youth, adults, and families. We understand what special needs
and challenges a Mission Team Coordinator has and take you in mind in our ministry.
What other experience do you have?
We have over 30 years of extensive ministry experience both in the U.S. and in Mexico. During this time we have
served as: Youth Directors, Campus Life Staff, AWANA Directors, Sunday School Teachers, Youth Pastor (with a
youth group totaling around 150 students), Associate Pastor (in a church of 600), Hispanic Outreach Pastor,
Building Construction Chairman for the construction of two major church expansion projects, and as missionaries.
We also have experience in the secular field in agriculture and construction. For more go to: About

What will our short term mission team do?
Work Projects: These projects are done in the morning from about 9:00am - 12:00. They are such projects as:
painting, cleaning, construction, cement work, digging, laying blocks and etc. The kind of work projects depends
on the skill and abilities of your group. The money for materials for your work projects comes out of your mission
trip fees. To learn more about work projects go to: Work Projects
Vacation Bible School: In the afternoon you will do a Vacation Bible School for children ranging in age from
3-12. This will be held at the church where you'll be serving at for the week while in Mexico. You will start off
outside the church with games, then move inside to do songs, puppets, story (provided by us), and crafts &
snacks. We provide the VBS program, puppets and puppet material for you to use. To learn more about
Vacation Bible School go to: Vacation Bible School
We also provide the option of doing a Youth Focus Outreach instead of a Vacation Bible School.
Evangelism Outreaches: Your kick-off to the week will begin Sunday afternoon. You will hook up with some of
the Mexican Christians from the church that you'll serve at for the week, and go out into the community to pass
out tracks and invite them to the activities you'll do during the week you're here.
Prayer/visitation Ministry In the mornings (Mon.-Thurs.) part of your group (about 1/3) will join some Mexican
Christians to visit homes, pray for them, encourage, and see how they live. The rest of your group will be
involved in work projects. It's a great time to see the culture up close, work alongside Mexican believers, and
spread the gospel. For more go to Visitation/prayer Outreaches
Community Outreaches
Two nights during the week (Sunday & Wednesday nights) you will do Community Outreach at the specially
chosen church you'll be serving at for the week while in Mexico. The first night (Sunday) you will take the
children out for their first V.B.S. after your participation in the Community Outreach. The other outreach night
(Wednesday) things will be pretty much the same with the exception that the VBS will be a scaled down version
without crafts and snacks. For the Community Outreaches you'll sing, share testimonies, do a puppet show,
show an evangelistic movie (provided by us) and more. Be prepared to be touched by the Mexican people you'll
serve. More on Community Outreaches

and wireless internet. Click here for more.
