Reynosa, Mexico
\\\

A number of years back we began sending teams to Reynosa during the summer for short term trips in conjunction with another organization.  When this other group eventually decided to stop organzing trips to Reynosa we had a decision to make: do we cut ties with the people and churches that we have had the opportunity to impact in city filled with need, or do we do the keep going back for the sake of the increasing impact that God might see fit to make through us?  We chose the second option!  All of our efforts in Reynosa are done in conjunction with our sister church, Prince of Peace Bible Church.  Our efforts in Reynosa are typically broken into house building trips and summer trips.

house building trips
house building tripsWe send several teams at different parts of the year with the primary goal of sharing the good news of Christ through the efforts of building houses for pastors (to help further their ministries) as well as families in need.  These trips have proven to be amazing opportunities for the growth of our people and for watching God change the lives of the people we go to minister to.  So far, BCBC has built five houses in Reynosa with two more planned for 2008.

Reynosa summer trips
reynosa summer tripsTo further strength those relationships previously built in Reynosa, we also do large trips each summer that involve ministry teams that focus on work projects, VBS, women's ministry, sports evangelism, food preparation and hospital visitation.  Our Reynosa teams are typically multi-generational.  Our trips in recent years have comprised close to 40 people each.

student-focus trips \\\
student-focused tripsIn addition to our students' annual mission trips to Acuna, Mexico (and past student-focused trips to Reynosa) our students have also had the opportunity to do short term missions in Chicago, Montana, New Mexico.

Kenya \\\
kenya tripsIn conjunction with one of our missionary familys (the Saums), we had the opportunity to participate in several conferences in Kenya that annually equip hundreds of Kenya's police chaplains.

Romania \\\
romania tripsWe have sent  teams to Romania with focuses on both service and straight-forward evangelism.  God has always been good to bless the cause of the Gospel as we have ministered with the Elpis Foundation.
