• WHO: Crossing family and friends (minimum age requirement: students in 6th grade and up with a parent/guardian)

• WHAT: We will be building 3 homes in El Salvador

• WHEN: April 24-27, 2025

• WHERE: El Salvador

• WHY: We will be building 3 homes for families in need who have been connected and working with YWAM El Salvador.  The work being done by the YWAM team in El Salvador is having a huge impact in the community.  Current community members live in structures made of materials they have been able to find or purchase for a low cost in the area.  In one weekend, we will be able to build a secure, safe home for a family.  The work we do is a part of the larger work being done by the YWAM staff to show the community what a consistent life surrendered to Jesus Christ looks like.  After we build the house, YWAM will continue to meet with and serve the family. 

• PARTNER:  YWAM El Salvador
