Student Ministries Mission Trips \| Purpose \| History Tier I (Summer Serve) \| Tier II (Quito Quest) \| Tier III (Czech Republic)
Tier II: Quito Quest Quito, Ecuador June 19- July 1, 2010 Leader: Sterling Moore Description: El Refugio is a 350-acre Christian retreat and training center just north of Quito, Ecuador. It exists to be a training and retreat center for students and leaders and is intended to facilitate a deeper relationship with Jesus Christ though nature and outdoor adventure. Quito Quest students stay at El Refugio and work on projects such as construction work, clearing trails, and ropes course elements. Students also have the opportunity to host a Vacation Bible School for about 100 children in the towns nearby. Recreational trips might include visiting the market in Otavalo, the jungle, and the Equator. For more information about this ministry site, visit: www.youthworld.org Ages: Current 10th and 11th Grades Application (pdf) Applications Due: February 14, 2010 Parent Information Packet (pdf) Tier II Quito Commitment Dates (pdf) The total cost of the trip is approximate and subject to change. Students participate in fundraisers and writing support letters to cover the trip cost balance after paying the deposit. More information is available in the application. Tier II B: Los Cabos, Mexico June 22 - 30 , 2010 Description:* The Tier #2 trip to Cabo San Lucas, Mexico is a new initiative for TREK (although I (Sterling) have lead this trip at a previous church). The trip is facilitated by an organization called LEAD 222 that seeks to offer service and mission experience for students, while simultaneously teaching lessons on leadership. We will be in Cabo with 3 or 4 other student ministries from the United States and gather all together for evening sessions, meals, worship and activities. As a group, we will have the opportunity to partner with a local church in their ministry development to the Mexican people. Cabo, like many other tourist driven areas, has the high contrast of immense wealth juxtaposed against the background of extreme poverty. Our projects can range from light construction on churches and their facilities to more relational projects with the local residents.
