Botswana

This is a construction, and evangelism mission.

Brazil

We typically partner with other churches from around the Southeast and in Brazil to construct a simple brick church in just three days. More important than building the church, however, is building relationships with the people of the communities we serve - through free clothing giveaways, a simple children's ministry, and shared smiles and hugs. Upon completion, we will dedicate the new church in a joint celebration with our Brazilian brothers and sisters. You will be taught all you need to know on the job site. Absolutely NO construction experience is required. Contact Brenton Bennett or Mike Clonts through the church office at 345-3477.
