2021 Texas Border Perspective
About the Journey
This global(x) team will work through our partner YouthWorks to love and serve families in and around Pharr, Texas, a small town along the U.S. and Mexico border.
This global(x) team will work alongside an organization called Border Perspective, which provides an immersive and educational experience of living on the border.
There will be learning opportunities to help the team understand the complexity of immigration on the border. Team members will serve the local immigrant church and organizations in long-term efforts that are helping empower immigrant families on the South Texas border. From volunteering at an immigrant shelter to serving alongside immigrant pastors and their congregations, these eye-opening opportunities will provide a first-hand look at ministry alongside immigrant communities.
