Photos: El Salvador Mission Trip January 2011

 

A group of 22 from St. Matthew’s connected with our partners in El Salvador during their Mission Trip, Jan. 6-15, 2011. While there, they visited various congregations, gathered information on the bridge project, and worked on some repair projects at Casa Esperanza, the homeless shelter that we have supported in the past.

Donations are welcome to help with the cost of supplies. Checks can be made to St. Matthew’s, with “El Salvador ministries” written in the memo line, and all money collected will support the projects at Casa Esperanza and other ministries of our El Salvador partnership.
