Nebraskans are planning two Volunteers in Mission trips early next year. The Northeast District group will be headed to San Antonio February 7th through the 17th. The facility has 11 buildings that house a school for the deaf and other services, including adoptive services. Work will include making bathrooms handicapped accessible, repairing roofs, doing landscaping, fixing up dorms and doing office work. This group is not new to mission work, having more than a decade of experience.
Volunteers are from several districts and other states, including Iowa, Kansas, Texas and New York.
Volunteers will be offered the opportunity to participate in a Secondary Project, painting a small church in Zapata, Texas, from February 20th through the 24th. For information on these Volunteers in Mission opportunities, contact the Northeast District Office in Norfolk. The Omaha District Volunteers in Mission will go to Boqueron, Panama, February 28th through March 11th. Secundino Morales, pastor of LaCasa del Pueblo, will lead the trip. The work will be in a rural part of Panama near Morales' home.
