Outreach
El Niño
Only a 3-hour drive from Irvine, the Baja California, Mexico region has some of the worst living conditions in the world. As Mother Teresa said, "Of all the places I've been in the world, Tijuana is among the poorest." Because of our close proximity, we have many opportunities to serve and partner with local ministries in both Tijuana and the colonia of El Niño.
Our mission is to assist in providing education, outreach and evangelism opportunities for children and their families in Tijuana and El Niño, and to empower the children to change their lives through education. Working with Irvine Presbyterian Church, University United Methodist Church provides backpacks and tuition for needy students in Mexico and supporting local churches. '
We are planning another trip to Mexico August to delivery backpack. Click here to email Sue for more information.
