| Description: |
Each spring break, a group of youth travel to Tijuana, Mexico to join forces with Esperanza International, or "Hope", an organization that works to build houses, schools and centers for the local community. We work side by side with low-income families and the Esperanza staff- mixing concrete, pouring tiles and beams, digging trenches, and a host of other challenging work. In the process, families learn the building process, which helps make their community more self-sufficient, and Bethel volunteers practice their Spanish, and touch the lives of our neighbors south of the border. These three days of work, laughter, growth and fun lead to changed lives on both sides of the border. Contact Tom Hoegel for more details.
