First Habitat for Humanity Mission Trip to El Salvador!
Come and Work for Habitat for Humanity in El Salvador
Kip Coerper, assistant construction manager at Syracuse Habitat for Humanity, will be leading a Habitat Global Village work trip for 12 people to El Salvador on May 26 - June 3. No construction experience is necessary. Come and learn to build and make new friends! Our week will include 1 day of learning about and experiencing the culture of El Salvador and 1 day at a beach resort. Global Village trips provide an opportunity for members to learn and contribute while expanding their knowledge of unfamiliar cultures and developing their own spiritual identity. The entire trip costs will be $1140 (tax deductible) plus airfare (scholarship money is available for some of the costs). To find out more about this mission trip go to Global Village Trips to El Salvador at Habitat.org or contact Kip at kipcoerper@yahoo.com

Youth Pilgrimage to El Salvador
July 17-25, 2012
Once again Youth from our Diocese will be traveling to our Companion Diocese of El Salvador in July to visit, work, play, study and pray with our sisters and brothers there. For almost twenty years we have been in companionship with them, and youth have been traveling both ways since 1997.
It's an overused phrase, but it will change your life; ask any of the youth (or adults) who've had the experience. Go to http://tinyurl.com/youth-pilgrimage for a brochure.
Friend "Companion Diocese" on Facebook for pictures and videos. We plan to travel July 17 to 25; we will have an organizational meeting in February. Contact Chuck Stewart at cnstewart@verizon.net or (315)685-8578. |
