Jr. High and High School Youth
Mission New Mexico ~ The Stand (Grace High School Youth)
The high school youth group is beginning to make plans for our 10th annual mission trip to Gallup, New Mexico. Please pray about supporting the team as they prepare to go. They would not be able to go without your support! Also, please consider supporting them with financial gifts. The dates for our trip are March 24-30. We will continue to work with American Indian Missions Inc. (AIMI) and their outreach to the Zuni and Navajo tribes.
There will be much work and ministry for our students while there.
Donations can be designated to offset the individual student payments of $350 each, van rentals, gas, and the costs of the camp where we are staying - Broken Arrow Bible Ranch.
Please visit our Snap Raise fundraiser page at: https://www.snap-raise.com/fundraisers/new-mexico-mission-the-stand-2018
Donations can be made there or directly to Grace.
We are blessed to have such a supportive congregation. Please keep the
students in your prayers as they will be busy planning, training, and bonding as a team over the next few weeks in advance of the trip. Questions? Contact Pastor Scott at: sgary59@sbcglobal.net, 760-213-0854
Thanks and God bless!
