RE-IGNITE SPRING BREAK
JUNIOR HIGH MISSION TRIP
March 11-14
Re-Ignite Senior High and Junior High youth and adults will become the hands and feet of Christ in different locations over Spring Break. Our Junior High will be in South Dallas working with C2K doing work for those who are unable to help themselves. Their trip is March 11-14. Our Senior High will be in Globe, Arizona on the San Carlos Apache Reservation the week of March 10-16. The San Carlos Apache Reservation is one of the poorest Native American communities in the United States, with the median annual household income being approximately $14,000. About 77 percent of the people live under the poverty line. Thirty nine percent of families live in substandard housing and 40 percent of the families live in overcrowded conditions. The Trietsch team will join forces with AMOR Ministries to build houses for families who currently have no residence whatsoever. What a joy to have their own residence! The money raised will provide the building supplies needed for both the Junior High team and the Senior High team’s projects as well as the transportation, lodging and meal needs of the Mission teams. The youth will provide all of the labor!
HOW CAN YOU HELP OUR “MISSIONARIES” AND THE FAMILIES THEY SERVE?
- Provide financial support to help purchase the building supplies as well as send the workers to do the manual labor. The month of February is Re-Ignite Mission Fundraising Month. We need to raise $80,000 during this one month. You may sponsor an individual youth who is going on either trip or be a general sponsor. All information about sponsorship is available at the Re-Ignite Mission Trip table in the Connection Center and at the Youth Ministry Information stand in the FLC.
- Be a Prayer Partner. Prayer partners are asked to pray for the group prior to the time of departure and during the trip so that we are covered in prayer at all times. Each prayer partner chooses a participant to cover in prayer and writes a letter of encouragement to be received during the trip. Information about becoming a Prayer Partner is also available at the above locations.
Please prayerfully consider how you can help the Re-Ignite team prepare for our annual Mission trips. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact Leann White, Junior High Coordinator at leannw@tmumc.org or 972-539-8547, ext. 247. Her office is located in the Family Life Center, room 222. |
