I am serving with a team of young adult mission leaders to run a week-long domestic mission trip in South Texas. March 8-14, 2024. The Rio Grande Valley (RGV) has a rich and loving Hispanic culture. Open and ready to share with all who visit and serve. This area has some of the poorest cities in the continental US. Many families live in homes that have been affected by Hurricanes and Flooding. Most homes in this area are multigenerational households. We also work alongside Catholic Charities at the Human Respite Center, and Arise Adelante Center helping with the spring/summer outreach programs, or at the Food Bank of the Rio Grand Valley packing and handing out food to the local community.
Beyond the great physical work of rebuilding, our mission teams will run retreats for our mission group, opening up the door for the Holy Spirit to work in the hearts of those who serve with us. We start each day with Mass, give formational reflections in the evening, facilitate small group discussions, and bring the groups to adore Jesus’ Blessed Sacrament and to receive His mercy in the Sacrament of Reconciliation. Wow! It is such an impactful week for the community we serve, the groups who come to serve with us, for us as mission leaders, and you as mission partners.
Our expected work project expenses for 2024 total approximately $100,000. My personal goal is to raise $500 to ensure that we have the funds necessary for building supplies, given the astronomical rise in building supply costs. I am excited to share with you my journey with God as a missionary and invite you to become one of my mission partners. Please consider joining me on the mission by making a one-time or recurring donation to support the work of Catholic Mission Trips, Inc. I would be honored to have you partner with me at $50-$200. I look forward to connecting with you and experiencing the mission together! Thank you for joining my support team!
