Welcome! We are excited for you to join our homebuilding ministry this summer!

Within this site, you can reserve a week for your homebuilding group and pay your deposit, sign up group members, download all of the necessary forms for your trip, and view your balance of fees. If you have any questions throughout the registration process, please do not hesitate to contact our work trip coordinator, Jenny Zimmerman, by emailing jzimmerman@projectmexico.org or by calling the Project Mexico office at (619) 426-4610.

We host two types of homebuilding groups each summer: small groups and Orthodox Basic Training (OBT) groups. During our small group weeks, teams from one, two, or three parishes construct a single home for a needy family, spend the afternoons interacting with the boys of St. Innocent's, and experience the local culture with a trip into Rosarito. During OBT weeks, we normally host 150-200 volunteers who construct between four to seven homes in one week, we have speakers each evening who present on a variety of topics, and on Sunday we have a day of fellowship and fun at St. Innocent’s. 

Our homebuilding weeks for the summer of 2012 are:

Small group week #1        May 18-24              Capacity: 25*

Small group week #2        May 29-June 4        Capacity: 25*

Small group week #3        June 7-13               Capacity: 25*

OBT WEEK #1                  June 19-25              Capacity: 300

OBT WEEK #2                  July 6-12                 Capacity: 300

Small group week #4        July 18-24               Capacity: 25*

Small group week #5        July 27-August 2      Capacity: 25*

Small group week #6        August 7-13            Capacity: 25*

*There is no limit to the number of people that an individual church can bring for a small group week (i.e. a group of 25 people from one parish may register for any of our building weeks). Registration for all of our weeks is on a first come, first serve basis. If any of the small group weeks fills to above capacity, some trip participants may work for one day at the orphanage on another project, helping us to make improvements and maintain the orphanage, and allowing for the ideal number of hands at the work site.
