Taste & See is an opportunity for a local Canadian church family to take its first steps to Global Missions through the Alliance. Teams will learn from experienced International Workers (IWs) on what it means to live out the Gospel in a cross-cultural context, and it is an opportunity for your youth, young adults, and members to see God’s work around the world. By partnering with IWs engaged in the advancement of the Global Church, your team can explore on how they can build a relationship with other churches through their testimony, skills, and prayer. From beginning to end, teams receive quality training during their time overseas as they learn to build long-term bridges through short-term engagements with followers of Christ everywhere in the world.

On this particular trip, the team from Elkford Alliance is partnering with Dan and Jenica Van Essen, and the school that their kids go to, to put on an English Club. BridgeWay was started in 2017 with the desire to impact families with the Gospel, sharing the love of God in a tangible way by providing families with a great bilingual education for their kids. Bridgeway is open about their Christian values, but many families who are not particularly religious send their kids anyway because of the proximity and English programming. The English Club will be another means through which Bridgeway can offer excellent English programming and will be another opportunity to share the Good News of Jesus through word and actions. 

Mexico City is one of the world’s most populous mega-cities with an estimated twenty-four million inhabitants living inside an area of 750 square kilometers. It is situated over 7,400 feet above sea level and is one of oldest cities in the world. Mexican culture has significant influence in Latin America and the world.

Although close to 90 percent of the people here would consider themselves Catholic and live in a highly “religious” context, few people in Mexico City are actively involved in the local church and have yet to experience the Gospel.
