Our congregation regularly sends teams of youth and adults to Mexico.  In past years this outreach has been in service to a church in the Cuernavaca area.  One major component of that ministry has been Vacation Bible School for the children in the neighborhood around the church.  In 2006 we were able to also serve the Casa Betesda orphanage where about 20 children live. Through the spring of 2007 our trips have been in conjunction with Azusa Pacific University's Mexico Outreach Program, in which hundreds of churches participate annually.  Through 2006 our group has stayed at Ejido Cuernavaca which is located on the outskirts of the city of Mexicali.  This was the first camp, and thus the oldest camp in the program.  It is also known as the "big camp" since it can accommodate up to 3,000 people.

In 2007 we focused on Ensenada.  During the spring we stayed at Rancho El Refugio (or "The Refuge") which is located 10 miles east of the city of Ensenada.  Situated in a farming community in the hills overlooking Ensenada, El Refugio supports up to 1,200 people.

Beginning in the spring of 2007 we began serving the Mount Hermon

Evangelical Free Church of Ensenada (Iglesia Evangelica Libre Monte Hermon) which was begun in 1989.  The church is pastored by Trino Ortiz.  Trino and his wife Esther have been

serving with Missionary Gospel Fellowship since 1994 and have been in ministry for over 28 years.  The Ortizs are involved in church planting in  very needy areas.  Their ministries are varied in working in the church, outside the church, counseling married couples, conferences, and children's Bible clubs.  They have also begun a medical clinic in Puerta Trampa where an Evangelical Free Church has begun.  It is our privilege to serve Trino and Esther and the church in Ensenda.
