This year, our Sisterhood team will be working with the Operation Serve International in Mexico City and its suburbs.
Participants will be interacting with the community through providing medical, optical, and hygiene assistance. There will also be opportunities to engage in children's ministry during your trip.
This trip is for women only. Minor physical activity but a lot of serve opportunity.
Join this team as we work alongside Operation Serve International(OSI) in their outreach to the people in Mexico City. OSI's strategy is to meet the physical needs of those we minister to.
OSI Directors, Sameh & Connie Sadik, have been working on the details of this project and are asking the Church of the King youth to make a big impact in Mexico City.
They have ministered in Mexico City for over 30 years and we have sent several teams to serve with them over the past few years.
