Session Voted Funds for Puentes de Cristo Mission Trip

 

          Head for the border towns of McAllen and Reynosa to visit Puentes de Cristo (Points of Christ) on April 13th - 15th.  We will head out Friday afternoon after school and eat dinner on the way down.  After arriving and getting settled, we will worship and hear a word about this Presbyterian Border Ministry.  We will have a work day on Saturday and visit a local church on Sunday morning before coming back.  The cost of the trip is being underwritten by the church, so it will be between $50 - 75 which will include meals, dorm lodging, and the purchase of some construction materials for our workday.  (Hotel accommodations are also available.)  Please feel free to join us for the worship, education, and sightseeing even if your doctor does not prescribe a day of work in the Mexican sun.  Contact David Jahnke with questions or to make reservations.  “Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink?  When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you?... ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’ (Matthew 25: 37, 38, 40)
