Trips
We desire to provide opportunities for church members, as the body of Christ, to serve and put their faith into practice. Our desire is to partner with our member churches to be a mobilizer, sending men and women from their congregations to serve through the opportunities provided. We hope that relationships would begin between those in the field and those who travel to serve alongside them.

tepeyac, COSTA RICA
For many years, RMS volunteers have been traveling to San José, Costa Rica to help Rev. Bill and Aletha Green with their ministries, including the CLIR print shop, the high school and grade school buildings. These volunteers have also assisted with various projects at the church plants in the region.
Campeche, Mexico
Volunteers came together to build a new pastor’s home on the grounds of the existing church. Our team of foundation workers, block layers, carpenters, and flat work masons brought their expertise to this project, making a lasting difference for the local church community.

Community Action TRIPS
