BENEFACTOR MISSION TRIP
New Mexico
​
New Mexico Adult Mission is an exciting 8-day journey that will help you grow closer to Christ through service to the poor and your fellow missionaries. The mission begins with arriving in Albuquerque, New Mexico then traveling 2 hours to Gallup, New Mexico. You will be hosted by the Little Sisters of the Poor on a hill overlooking the city of Gallup. The main focus of the mission is to be Christ's hands and feet to the poorest of the poor. We will work alongside the Little Sisters of the Poor, Benedictine Monks, Missionaries of Charity and the Diocese of Gallup staff. You will be assisting the needs of these individual organizations whether it be physical labor or simply spending time with someone in need. Christ dwells within these simple acts of service. Before and after each day of work you will also spend time with your fellow missionaries in prayer to grow closer to Christ.
As St. John Paul II states, “Be generous in answering Jesus’ call inviting you to put out into the deep and become His witnesses, discovering the trust He puts in you to devise a future together with Him. Above all, to fulfill this mission the Church is entrusting to you requires that you cultivate a genuine life of prayer nourished by the Sacraments, especially the Eucharist and Confession.”
We hope and pray New Mexico mission is calling you!
