Why We Are Going
Our mission is to assist the pastor and member of Primera Iglesia Bautista in Santa Rosa, TX and Refuge Rock Church in Edcouch, TX to connect with their communities. We will assist by doing door-to door canvasing, conducting a Block Party, passing out Christmas stockings and assisting in worship.

For those with children, take this opportunity to spend a weekend as a family showing others what the love of Christ is all about as we celebrate the Christmas season by helping a new church reach their community and as we deliver over 300 Christmas stockings to the children there.

The ultimate goal is to see individuals come to a saving personal relationship with Christ. We also want to obtain information from individuals for the church as they develop their congregation.
