Mexico Missions Trip

Our Mexico missions is an annual trip we take for the opportunity to serve alongside fellow believers in a global context. The trip consists of two days of travel and three days serving in different capacities.

​

What will we do there?

As a group, we will travel in vans across the border and stay at our partner ranch that is gated.

Serve Day 1: spend time at Genesis Diez camp, serving orphans and sharing God’s love with them

Serve Day 2: fellowship and worship as we connect with a local church

Serve Day 3: partner with Walk the Narrow Road Ranch, supporting their ministry through practical work on the ranch

​

When is it and how much does it cost?

Dates: November 20-24th, 2026

Cost: $325

Please note that this does require students to miss school on Friday the 20th

How do the fundraisers work?

There are two fundraising events that are mandatory to attend and both will take place after church. These events are for the purpose of raising funds to donate to the ministries that we will be serving alongside and not to subsidize the cost of the trip.

​

Are scholarships available?

Yes!

  • Scholarships are available for students who need financial assistance 

  • If your family would like to request a scholarship, email christiana@vcfconnect.org 

​

What are the trip expectations/guidelines?

​If anyone is unable to keep these guidelines, we will ask a parent or guardian to come and collect their student early. 

​

What happens after I sign up?

Once a student is registered:

  • Parents/students receive additional trip information by email

  • Packing list will be provided

  • Meeting and fundraiser reminders will be sent
