2007 Mission Trips

for Youth and Adults

Youth Mission Trips

The senior highs travel to Presidio TX from Saturday, June 23 – Saturday, June 30.  For those who wish and proper forms are in order (passports), work may be available in Ojinada, Mexico – a short jog across the border.  The junior highs will travel to Dallas to work through an United Methodist Mission organization called ‘C2K’ – Called to the Kingdom.

As always, the invitation to participate in a mission endeavor is always extended.  Please don’t let money, or rather the lack of it, be an excuse to not participate.  Lakeway is a church that is built on being in mission.  I am positive that the members of this church will make it possible for anyone – youth or adult, to participate in a mission trip if that is your desire.

 

2006 Trips

In 2006. Senior High UMYIM2 were in New Orleans, LA and Jr High UMYIM were in Graham, Texas. 

Stories and Pictures below are from our 2005 Mission Trips

 

Our trip to Whispers of Hope Horse Farm in Wichita Falls, Texas was Sun, Mar 6 - Wed, Mar 9, 2005 (Spring Break Week) for Jr and Sr High youth & adults from Lakeway.  Whispers of Hope is a therapeutic riding facility for children who have special care and different mobility needs.
