The City
The Turn Xalapa Mission Trip Sign Up (Jun 21-Jun 28)
Live.Learn.Love. is our college adult Leadership development. College age & College adults (IE you do NOT have to be an ASU student) are invited to join our gospel-centered, missional discipleship training this summer. An OPTIONAL component of LLL is our Xalapa Mexico Mission trip.
Xalapa Mission Trip
Our Xalapa mission trip is in conjunction with a local church in the beautiful city of Xalapa. The local church is directly across the street from the largest university in Xalapa, The University of Veracruz. Our focus will be on helping them explore ways to bring the gospel to their campus.
The weeklong Xalapa mission trip is an optional component that we would like every college adult to prayerfully consider. We recognize the cost may appear high, but we want you to seek the LORD in prayer and then commit to go based on His leading. With school finishing up the first week of May, you will have time to work and save money in both May and June. The trip has limited openings and there will only be 8 open spots. An initial deposit of $150 is required by April 25. Any remaining spots not filled by April 25th will then be opened to our entire church family so that others may join us. As mentioned above, the cost is primarily airfare and a Passport is required to enter Mexico.
Xalapa Veracruz Mexico and Safety
Fellowship went on a mission trip to Xalapa twice last year. Xalapa is in southern Mexico on the gulf coast and the capital of the Mexican state of Veracruz—miles away from the Texas border. Our experience was wonderful and Xalapa was/is in no way connected to the drug-related violence sometimes associated with several border towns along the Texas and California borders. While safety cannot ultimately be guaranteed, college adults and parents can rest assured that Xalapa is an extremely safe city. For more on Xalapa, see the following sites:

Si!
Yes Rino, if we end up flying out of DFW, i’m sure you could just meet us along the interstate as we come thru LR.
As for current status of money, we’ve not had a lot of “general” support money come from our “general” plea, so I wouldn’t be counting on that too much. Again, a sample support letter is attached to this event on The City. I’ll have to check with Erin on Monday to see official status of everyone’s support. That status would include any money given to general “xalapa trip” plus any support money you each may have submitted (or had someone submit on your behalf).
Thanks.
are coming
