Building Relations for the Lord

Application for mission trip to Cancun Mexico (Please print out and return with your deposit)

Here are the details for the mission trip to Cancun. At this time we are planning on going in Jan 2011. We leave on Jan 3^rd and come back on Jan 9^th. Depending on what part of the country you are in as to your flight arrangements. If you are in the south east then you might consider flying out of Atlanta with the group in which case you can come in the day before and spend the night at our home. We will go to the airport the next day for a morning flight to Cancun. If you live in another part of the US or it will not work for you to come in the day before then you will need to make arrangements to arrive in Cancun on that Monday Jan 3^rd as close to noon as possible. We can make additional trips to the airport to pick you up but the fewer trips the better. We leave Cancun for the return home on Sunday around 12 noon. But again we can make additional trips to the airport if needed.

 The 1^st day is a day of getting your feet on the ground, unpacking and getting to know the rest of the group. We stay at the Mission House in Cancun which is a very nice setup. It is dorm type sleeping with large bathrooms. There is a large common area where we meet for Bible study and devotionals and time of fellowship. There is a big screen TV, pool table and a swimming pool although I can never find time to go swimming. All our meals are served to us at the mission house and are included, along with bottled water and snacks.

 While we are there we will be working with local churches in the area doing street ministry. A typical day is we start off by prayer walking the area around the church in the morning then in the afternoon we get into makeup and go back out to interact with the public and invite them to the program we will be doing at the church that evening. We start the evening program around 5 to 7 and wrap up in about 1 hour then it is back to the Mission House where we stay. We work with 4 churches over 4 day handing out tracks, balloons, face painting and just building relations with the local people.

 On the 6^th day (Saturday) we have the day off for a day of site seeing and shopping before we head home on Sunday.

 Now the cost. For the week it is $700 which includes your meals, room, snacks, bottled water and the interrupter. I also bring chick tracks for hand outs. The things that are not included are your airfare and anything we may need to buy down there for give away such as candy and piñatas. And anything else that you might want to spend personally would be at your own expense. This last year the airfare form Atlanta was $199 round trip plus tax, with tax it was about $290. Also you will need travel health insurance. If you are not covered by your current health care provider then we can set you up with a 1 week policy that is a $2 million policy with evacuation coverage and it is only $17.50 for the week.

 I think I have covered everything but if you have additional questions please give me a call at 800-442-6432.
