We are excited to share a life-changing opportunity with our students and families during Spring Break 2020 (March 6-17) as God-willing, a group of 70 students, staff, and parents will be heading down to Lima, Peru, to serve that community on a Maranatha-sponsored mission trip. While there, we’ll be building a 22′ x 42′ multipurpose worship and learning space, running a Vacation Bible School (VBS) program, and operating a few medical, dental, and vision clinics. We’ll end the trip with an epic trip to the famous Machu Picchu before returning back to Texas with sunburns, full hearts, and memories for a lifetime. We ask for your prayers as well as your financial support as we don’t want to see any of our students miss out on the opportunity to go, where God has placed it on their hearts to serve.
Donation “Wish Lists”:
Below, you will find three separate “wish lists”, one each for medical, construction and VBS. Our team leaders have helped create these lists and will continue adding items as needs arise. When signing up to donate items, please plan to bring them to Burton Academy by Friday, February 28 in order to give the team time to process and pack the donated items.
Participant Fundraising Websites:
Below is an additional list of each of the students and families who have committed to join us on the trip with links to their individual fundraising pages. We thank you for your prayers, donations, and continued support to help make our Peru 2020 Mission Trip an unforgettable life experience and blessing to all those participating! Each donation made through the website links below will receive an auto-generated receipt.
