house building trip to mexico
Posted : 3 Aug, 2009 11:09 AM

i was wondering if any people from this site would be interested in a mission trip to mexico to build a house for a family in need.



i lead crews or groups of people through baja cbristian ministries building a 16x20 3 room with a loft house. these can be built in 2 days ( highschool groups take 4 days). we can take longer to build the house as well



15-20 people would be a good number for the group. $5,500 would have to be raised to buy the materials. the cement slabs are already in place and the lumber on site and marked out for us.



accomodations are at a rustic 10 acre compound that ive stayed at 8+ times. its not 5 star sorry :)

i bring all the tools necessary to build the house. you bring a hammer, i even have extra aprons.



anyone interested? check out baja christian ministries website then get back to me maybe this could be put together for late october or early november. great months to build weather wise.



you need passports so get started on that right away if you dont have one



ill be happy to answer any questions people post. thanks Jim

I think this sounds like a great idea! Not only can we help others in need but also build new friendships at the same time!It would be a good first trip too for many who have always wanted to try a mission trip. WARNING! They can become addicting!



It's a win-win situation! How much is the approximate cost per person?

COST OF THE HOUSE IS $5,500.00 AND WE WOULD DIVIDE THAT BETWEEN THE 15-20 PEOPLE THAT WOULD LIKE TO BUILD.



HOUSING IS RUSTIC BUT $7.00 A DAY I BELIEVE.



FOOD WOULD NEED TO BE CATERED BY A LOCAL COMPANY THAT HAS SERVED FOOD FOR GROUPS IVE BEEN WITH BEFORE. I CAN CHECK ON PRICES. THIER FOOD IS PRETTY GOOD :)



THANKS FOR THE INQUIRY MUAREEN

Hi Sir, I got a mail from them.

They say they prefer groups rather than an individual, They are saying they will join me up with someone.

I have sent an email regarding suitable opportunities.



Thanks.
