About the Journey
 

Alongside our partner, Sowing a Vision, this global(x) team will serve in Mérida, Mexico, located on the Yucatan Peninsula near the Gulf of Mexico. This vibrant city has a rich cultural and architectural history, and it’s considered one of the safest cities in Mexico. In recent years, Mérida has experienced economic growth, but the disparity between the rich and the poor is still dramatic. 

We’re looking for a high-energy team of adults who are excited to work alongside the local community on at least one large construction project, such as a church or community building. The team will help build roofs, floors, and courts and paint auditoriums and multipurpose rooms. In Mérida, building construction requires the use of beams, sand, gravel, cement, and blocks. The team will need to lift beams and blocks, help prepare cement mix, and carry heavy buckets. Prior construction experience is not required, but it’s helpful. 

Relationally, the team will also have the opportunity to host Vacation Bible School for local children, play games, hold some arts and crafts classes, sing songs, and have fun with the kids. 

Through your interaction, you’ll be sharing the love of Christ, but you’ll also grow in faith and love through your experience. Working alongside one another, you’ll help improve the community while you connect with the people of Mérida and learn about their culture.
