Border Perspective Encounter Team *
Border Perspective Encounter Team *
This Border Perspective Encounter Team offers first hand experience of the U.S./Mexico borderlands and a glimpse into the lives of those who live there everyday.
Border Perspective exists to equip, educate, and mobilize people of faith through Biblical resources and service-learning experiences along the U.S. and Mexico Border.
As a part of this team, you will…
Interact with local pastors, border patrol agents, and humanitarian workers
Discuss migration through the lens of Scripture and a Kingdom mindset
Serve alongside local immigrant leaders
Visit significant sites along the border itself
This Encounter Team will help you develop a curiosity for all people and their stories, it will position you beside people whose lives are different than your own, and it will challenge you to love the person in front of you, whomever they may be.
