History

Journey Church's Mexico Outreach (JCMO) program started in 1999 as a Senior Youth program.  Initially, we jointed the Azusa Pacific University's Mexico Outreach program.  However, the program grew to a independent Journey Church Program and was continued as a Senior Youth program until 2005 when it became too big and required the majority of the Youth Pastor's time to organize and manage.  It was decided to discontinue the Mexico Outreach as Senior Youth program that is organized by a staff person. Volunteers stepped in and took over the leadership of the program and convert it to a Family Outreach program.

Since 1999 the JCMO build relationships with three Partner Churches that are invaluable.  Through this program our team members were enriched and blesses.  The majority of children and adults that went to Mexico in the passed came back with a new focus and a better understanding what it means to be God's servants.

Mission Focus

The JCMO team visits Mexico every year for a week before Easter Sunday, which coincide with Easter school break in Mexico. During these visits the JCMO team provides the following outreach ministries:

Daily Vacation Bible School (VBS) classes for the young children.

Worshiping Together and participate in church services through teaching and music.

Adult Education classes to prepare the local ministry teams in children ministry, youth ministry, and other programs.

Construction/Maintenance Projects aimed to serve the local churches and provide essential service and resources to maintain their facilities.

Community Outreach that focus on providing services or resources to the needed in the communities served by the Partner Churches.

In this process we build relationships with the members of the Partner Churches and enrich our own team members.
