The approximate cost for each team member will be $200.00 with a $50.00 deposit. All types of skills are needed. The work will consist of light construction. Hanging drywall, installing wall insulation, taping and floating, painting, and cleanup just to give you an idea. To reserve your place on the trip contact Donna Parkinson. Come and grow as a disciple of Jesus Christ by being Jesus’ hands. If you are unable to physically be a part of this trip, please support us with your prayers.
