MEXICO MISSION TRIP

For the last 30 years Glenmore Christian Academy has been taking a team of Grade 9 students and staff to partner with Youth With A Mission and their Homes of Hope initiative. Every year since, these teams have fundraised money, travelled to these locations and have built homes for families that have living conditions that are, in many cases, sub-human. As much as these homes tangibly help shape the future of these families, the trip also helps shape a global perspective in the students and staff and aids in developing a heart to see the world become a better place.

​

​This is a very practical opportunity for our students to carry out the part of our school mission: serving through love. The trip is a culmination of Christian leadership and spiritual development for our Grade 9 students. They learn to build homes - but moreso, they learn to build deeper connections and participate in devotions and prayer ministry with Youth with a Mission. Students lead vacation Bible School programs, minister to children in orphanages and churches, present Christian dramas, share testimonies at shelters, work with senior citizens and more.

​

To date, over 70 homes have been built by GCA students. This could not have been possible without the past support of the generous community and corporate donors.  If you are interested in supporting the trip in any financial capacity, please contact Lyden Price, our Director of Finance, at l.price@gcaschool.com. Tax receipts are eligible for any donations of $25 or more.
