Dominican Republic - High School Ministry
MPCC has the incredible opportunity of assisting the local church in Navarrete, Dominican Republic by operating a week of sports camps. This mission trip for high school students allows them to use their love of sports and for kids to make an impact on a local community. We will run five two-a-day camps to attract kids and families so that they church can share the gospel with them. Any high school student interested in missions should consider joining us for a great week.
