ADULT MISSION TRIP TO CONROE MISSION CENTER

February 5-9, 2023


Join us for an adult mission trip to the Mission Center in Conroe, Texas! The Mission Center is the warehouse and command center for recovery efforts in The Texas Annual Conference. The warehouse collects, assembles and distributes disaster response equipment and supplies for use in regional disasters.


No experience required! We will assemble and verify cleaning and hygiene kits in a climate-controlled environment. Work hours are flexible. There is no trip fee, so the only expenses are meals.


If you’re interested in joining the team, pick up a flyer in the Narthex. Deadline to sign up is January 15.
