Basic Information

​​

We will be traveling to far South Texas (just past South Padre Island) to San Benito, TX.  In partnership with Juntos Servimos, we are going to be working with a church to build an additional room onto the parsonage.  This will enable Pastor Carlos and his wife to adopt his 2 nephews.  We are asking youth to pay $100 each to help cover the costs of this trip. The $100 will cover everything except snacks/souvenirs on the trip.  No one will be turned away from the trip because the $100 causes a financial hardship.

​

This trip will be a 10-12 hour drive.  We will arrive at Buckingham at 7:15 a.m. on Sunday to get everything packed up, then we will attend the early service so that we can be blessed and commissioned.  We will be pulling out at 9:45 a.m. and we will return on Friday night.   

 

We are staying at First United Methodist in San Benito again this year, so we have air conditioning, a great kitchen, and a lot of floor space to sleep on.  If the floor is too hard, be sure to pack that air mattress or cot so you can get a good night's sleep.  Please print out a copy of the packing list from the link above and also fill out the medical release form.  We are not going into Mexico, so no one will need a passport for this trip.
