No, but we would love if you did. Only a handful of MCCA's volunteers speak Spanish conversationally. Many of our partner ministries in Mexico speak English, and we use creative interpretation for the times that there is a language barrier.

We take every available precaution we can to ensure we are safe in Mexico. We only stop at trusted locations and we try to be back across the border before the sun goes down. We trust in the Lord and what He has prepared for us.

MCCA has six very distinct routes that supply over 50 different childcare centers and feeding programs. Each route will stop at about 6-7 stops where there is an opportunity to have fellowship with the ministry. Our southern most route actually has around 15 ministries come up to meet us at a central location in order to pick up their allotted product. Some of these ministries travel several hours to meet us.

It will all depend on what you are comfortable doing. If you're comfortable carrying 50+ pounds of beans or rice, then that's perfect. If you can help us keep count how much has been loaded on a truck, then that's perfect too. We'll find something for you to do, aside from enjoy our time of fellowship together.

Short answer is yes, but the long answer is no. If you are United States citizen then you will be allowed entry back into the US after such a time Border Agents are able to identify and confirm you as a US citizen. In order to avoid a lengthy stay at the border, we recommend everyone bring either their Passport, Passport card, or any other legally recognized entry method (SENTRI pass, etc)
