Mission Trips
- An Annual Medical Mission Trip is taken in late January or early February. We served in Haiti from 2010 until 2018. In 2020, we began serving in Guatemala. Click HERE to watch a video of our 2022 Mission Trip created by a staff member of Porch de Solomon, our partner agency in Guatemalan medical mission work.
- Additional Mission Trips are scheduled as needed. Past trips have included day trips to outlying counties to install clean water systems, work trips to Mexico, and various trips in Tennessee through Presbyterian Disaster Assistance (PDA) which is the emergency and refugee program of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.). PDA enables congregations and mission partners of the PC(USA) to witness to the healing love of Christ through caring for communities adversely affected by crisis and catastrophic events. The focus is on the long-term recovery of disaster impacted communities and provides training and disaster preparedness for presbyteries and synods.
