The Oklahoma Region was just notified that we have the opportunity to go on a mission trip to Caminante in the Dominican Republic. This trip will start on July 26, 2016 and end on August 4. This is short notice, but it is a very worthwhile opportunity.  We need five more people to make this trip.

Scholarships Available

There are scholarships available, particularly for older teens and young adults. The cost of this trip is $1300 to $1500 depending on air fare. The Oklahoma Region can also help a participant with fund raising for their trip. An older teenager could go on this trip if accompanied by a parent or guardian.

This ministry of Caminante is in the seaside city of Boca Chica, a city with 35% unemployment. This mission is operated by the Catholic Church and it provides educational opportunities for children, teenagers and adults that allows them to stay in school and learn the skills for excellent-paying jobs.
