Volunteers in Mission Projects VIM Logo



 

Join us in 2009: July 12 - July 18!

 

Our team of eleven spent the week of June 27 to July 5, 2008 in Mexico. We were blessed with a wonderful experience. We poured concrete, painted, and generally helped the congregation as they worked on their new church building. With generous donations from Wesley church members and the work team, we were able to donate over $4000 toward the completion of the church roof, which is one of the next projects the congregation looks toward.
Please join us in 2009. Mark your calendar now and plan to be in Panzacola from July 12, 2009 to July 18, 2009. For more information, contact jkawashima@sbcglobal.net



mission team


Join us in Tatoxcac: November 16-25, 2008

This VIM team is primarily a medical mission.  The group travels to Tatoxcac, a small village about five hours from Mexico City, and provides free medical services at the Buen Samaritan Clinic, which was built by Methodist Church work groups from the United States. Doctors, nurses and other medical providers work for four days at the clinic, seeing approximately 600 adults and children each year. One other village will also be visited for three days. We are able to purchase medications at a very reduced rate from MAP International, a Christian organization dedicated to providing low cost medications for those in need throughout the world. The team also provides Bible School activities for the children, who sometimes are waiting all day with their parents to see a medical provider.
