PEOPLE TOUCHING PEOPLE WITH CHRIST LOVE AT THE CENTER
St. George’s Mission Trips
What are Mission Trips?
They are...windows through which to see the world and God's vision for it in new
ways;....mirrors in which to see ourselves, our church, our culture more
clearly;....doorways through which we enter into deeper fellowship with God and
our neighbor;…voices through which we may hear God's call to us.
Do you have skills that you want to share? Do you have time to give? Do you want
to make a difference?
We have the mission trip for you!
Camp Coast Care
Though their plight is no longer making national headlines, thousands of people are
still living in limbo more than a year after Hurricane Katrina's devastating
onslaught on the Gulf Coast in August 2005. Camp Coast Care operates recovery
and reconstruction missions for those in need on the Mississippi Gulf Coast. Please
be advised that the recovery process has been approximated to take a minimum of
10 years. Volunteer help will be needed for years to come. While you are here,
your work group may have a project that begins with digging trenches for
foundations and pipe, or your work group may have a project that requires the
gutting of a house, further yet your group project may be the finishing work such
as trim and painting.
Our Little Roses Ministries – August 5-13
Our Little Roses Ministries serves Honduran girls whose young lives have been
diminished by poverty and homelessness. Many are rescued from abuse or neglect.
The mission invests in their potential to learn, bloom and prosper, by giving them a
secure and loving home in a Christian community To this day, no other Honduran
facility uniquely for homeless girls exists. Because uneducated girls with no skills
have almost no opportunities to escape the poverty cycle, this ministry is
dedicated to equipping these future young women to enter into middle class
society, and to thrive.
St. George’s and several other parishes visit OLR every year, bringing supplies,
conducting activities, establishing relationships, and nurturing the love and caring
that grows between missioners and these children.
