Our Mexico missions trip is only three months away! Aloha Church of God's students and leaders
will be partnering with youth groups from Tigard ChoG and Centralia ChoG for
service projects in the Baja Peninsula this summer.

Welcome Home Ministries, headquartered in Vicente Guerrero,
will help coordinate our work projects, local transportation, meals, and
lodging. Our church specifically will be
building a house for a needy family, working with young children, and providing
funds for another church to install an outhouse this fall.
Last month's spaghetti dinner fundraiser helped to cover some of our Mexico trip's expenses:
Our students worked hard with staff from Aloha Christian Preschool to make sure that everyone got fed and served |
Local businesses like Coffee People supported us by donating items for our basket raffle |
Kids from Aloha Christian Preschool entertained supporters during the spaghetti dinner |
We look forward to seeing many of you on Sunday, June 2 after
church for our dessert auction for Mexico missions!

Derek's 2nd day on the job at Five Guys' Burgers and Fries! |
Garth conducts an experiment with water, food coloring, and bleach to illustrate how Christ turns our deepest grief into unspeakable joy. In this teaching, Christ tells His disciples that He had to leave them before being resurrected on Easter morning!
And of course, the parties at Garth and Kathy's house: All-night party, pizza parties, Playstation 3 gaming sessions, and our annual Super Bowl party!
Elizabeth shows off her moves with the "Everybody Dance!" PS3 Move game, during the all-night E.P.I.C. gaming party at our house. We stayed up until 7:30 a.m. to finally beat “Uncharted 2: Among Thieves!”
