Have you considered a Vacation with a Purpose?

Want to do something different for vacation?

Are you interested in serving those in need through a cross-cultural outreach? Do you want to build community with like-minded people eager to “give back” like you are?

Then a Short Short Term Missions Trip is a perfect way for you to MAKE A DIFFERENCE!

Scenes from our Mexico Weekend Mission Trip which built 2 Houses in 2 1/5 days!

Hollywood Presbyterian Church values the importance of sending our members on short term mission trips throughout the world. These cross-cultural outreaches offer the person going an opportunity to experience the relevance of the Gospel in another culture, to serve the poor and needy first hand, and to be refreshed and challenged in one's own relationship with the Lord. God is passionate about making Himself known to people of all tongues, tribes, and nations, and we at HPC consider it a privilege to be part of communicating His Love and sharing the blessings He has given us to people in Hollywood and throughout the world.

College Mission in Albania,
July 13 –August 1, 2006

The college team, led by Jason Blandford, will be working at "Crossroads," a camp and conference center in Erseka, Albania which is run by our missionary Mark Stoscher, his wife, and their team. Jason led a team there in 2004 and we are excited to see how the Lord uses them as they minister to the kids by teaching Bible lessons, sharing their testimonies and just being an example of Christ's love! Please remember to keep them in your prayers as they travel and visit their blog for updated prayer needs & status reports.
