College Avenue Baptist Church to hold MexiGO

College Avenue Baptist Church members are invited to join the MexiGO mission this 2022 from June 19 to June 24 at Ensenada, Mexico.

The church posted on their announcement that this event is a six-day summer service and outreach program for adults and children ages seven and above. During the event, their team would build a shelter for an in-need family. They would also conduct a VBS program to teach the gospel to the neighborhood's children.

Afterward, they informed participants that they would return to their accommodations at the YUGO Ensenada Outreach Center for meals, worship, and fellowship.

The church added that construction or Spanish skills are not necessary, just the willingness to help.
