Amor Ministries

www.amor.org

Since 1980, Amor Ministries has been providing a unique, life-changing mission experience to thousands of Christians from all over the world: building safe, solid homes for impoverished Mexican families, in the name of Christ. These home-building trips build more than shelter – they are an opportunity to live the life of service that God calls us to live, a step toward eradicating spiritual and physical poverty in the world, and a transformational experience for both participants and the families being served. Amor’s mission is to build God’s church, and to do that specifically by responding to poverty, by showing God’s love through tangible acts of service and by demonstrating to the poor the same grace that is received through Jesus. In addition to housing, Amor Ministries provides food, backpacks of school supplies, warm clothes, Christmas presents and winter relief and household items. Amor works with churches in the U.S. and Mexico to mobilize volunteers and donations.

 

BPC sponsors two trips with Amor Ministries each year:

  • Adult Mexico Workcamp occurs each October on Columbus Day Weekend. Anyone 18 years of age or older is welcome to attend, whether or not you have any construction experience. View our video about the trip, or for information on the next trip contact Tom Bagamane at (JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address)
  • High School Mexico Workcamp happens every year the week before Easter. BPC youth partners with a church in northern California to build 4 houses in a week. For information about our next trip, contact Linsay Goodrich or Dean Guilotis, elders to youth, via the church office.
