City of Children Mission Trip
City of Children began in 1970 as a labor of love. The City of Children continues to be a successful mission of Churches of Christ across America. The purpose is to teach the gospel to the orphaned and impoverished children in Mexico. So far, 620 children and adults have become Christians, with an additional 800 new Christians reached through Baja Missions. The Mexican government allows us to teach the gospel because we are giving their children a good home, good care and education. We are trying to bring love and happiness back into the lives of hurting children. One of the ways we accomplish this is through providing mission opportunities for visiting teams from Churches of Christ.
Members of the Crossroads travel to Mexico every year to participate in this ministry. For more information, please contact one of our elders.
