SOUTH TEXAS HIGH SCHOOL TRIP

Border Perspective’s service-learning trips are immersive, educational and will intentionally place you into the lives of immigrant leaders serving families in South Texas. There will be learning opportunities to help you understand the complexity of immigration on the border and service opportunities that help support local immigrant ministries. From volunteering at a local immigrant shelter to serving alongside immigrant pastors and their congregations, these opportunities will be eye-opening and will give you a firsthand look at ministry alongside immigrant communities.

Serving with Border Perspective allows for your group to go beyond the headlines and politics of the border and see and experience first hand the needs of the migrant families and individuals. By serving on the border, you’ll be able to make an impact on alleviating the suffering of the people by meeting real needs through local ministries. We help you step into another culture, break cross-cultural barriers, hear important stories and challenge you to reflect on how God wants you to use this experience.

Do you want a service experience that propels your ministry’s vision forward? Your group is unique and no one knows your people like you do. As a leader, you want to see them grow, use their gifts, serve, and make an impact.

YWx offers year-round mission trips that are completely customizable, easy to organize, and gives your group the opportunity to make an impact in a new community. YouthWorks handles all of the service & logistics so that you don’t have to be stuck with all of the planning. We want you to focus on tailoring the rest of the experience to fit your vision you have for your group.
