Mission Trip to the Dominican Republic

Fellow Missionaries and Potential Missionaries,

If you feel the call to work side by side with a community in need, you might consider joining the 2025 Construction Mission to the Dominican Republic. This mission is more than building structures; it is about building relationships, hope, and a brighter future for our brothers and sisters in need. Through our collective efforts, we will work with local communities, offering our skills, our hearts, and our prayers to support their vision of a more sustainable and thriving community.

If you are skilled in construction and have a heart for service, your presence and participation are invaluable.
