We do have some structured teams and ministry events from caring for elderly "shut-ins" to orphanages we sponsor in Russia and Mexico.
2020 Vision Team: We've found our "Village and Valley" in the outskirts of San
Salvador, El Salvador. We will be taking the next ten years partnering
with Christ for the Cities International to serve this part of the
world. We will be sponsoring trips and service opportunities where all the talents and skill sets God has placed in our church can be used.

Russian Orphanage Team: Each winter we take a team to an orphanage we have developed a relationship with in Zarechnyy, a village 5 hours south of Moscow. We go to present a camp experience for the children during their school term break. Contact
Len if you are interested in going.
Mexico Orphanage Trip: Our Breakout club takes a team of graduating 5th graders and one of their parents to Rancho de Sus Niños every June. To see the pictures from this year's trip visit our
photo gallery.
City Impact: On many occasions we have served the community and provided Hot
Meals, Groceries, and shared the spirit of Thanksgiving Blessing to
all

Rebuilding Together: Our church participated with the national organization,
Rebuilding Together, on a local project in Half Moon Bay April 25, 2009. We did some rehab on a Head Start facility by cleaning up rust on playground equipment and fencing, installing a new floor in the main rooms, installing gutters and a French Drain to deal with water flow, and some light touch up painting. This was our second time partnering with RT and is something we look to do in the future.

Certainly Mariners is not limited to these listed ventures. There are regularly reoccurring activities like Adopt-a-Family,
Operation Christmas Child, hosting blood drives, encouragement baskets, and more that happen throughout the year. If you would like to present a ministry idea or opportunity, or better yet, gather a team and lead one, just contact any of the pastoral staff for guidance on how to begin. Serving in places you have a passion or interest for and in ways God has gifted you are always the most satisfying and productive!
