Short term missions

The photos above show two CTR parishioners, Cynthia Dabroski and Becky Teiwes, on short term mission trips to Corazón del Pastor, the girls home of Niños con Valor. The photo of Becky was taken before she married Mark. She and Mark decided to go back and work at Niños. You can learn more on by visiting their blog. Also see the page on our outreach to Bolivia.
