I am ready to lean in and have a conversation about joining the 2026 Missions Trip Team.
The Point Church is about making a difference locally and internationally. Over 20 people said yes to the opportunity to go to the Dominican Republic, February, on their own dime and time to serve. With money raised by the church family a house was built for a deserving family, we also ran a marriage event, had a kids car race, and so much more. Learn what the team did by watching our in-service interviews.
S.H.M. is a charitable organization dedicated to transforming generations by transforming individuals and communities.
They are a Canadian charity registered with Canada Revenue Agency and are based in Bridgewater, Nova Scotia. The base for their work in the field is in Sosua, Dominican Republic.
We are heading to the Dominican again during our March Break in 2026. Those that are interested are asked to make a commitment to go by September 2025.
Sosua, Dominican Republic. We will fly into Puerto Plata and travel from the airport to the resort by bus as a team. Our accommodations will be at Sosua by the Sea, 10 to 15 minutes from the job site. We will leave the resort each day by approximately 9:00 am to go to the job site, return to the resort for lunch from 12:00 - 1:00 pm, then back to the job site until 5:00 pm.
Our goal is to build a home, attend a pregnancy clinic, and do some outreach to the children of the community. Depending on the interest, we also have the opportunity to do health checks in schools. No matter what skills you have or may not have yet realized, there is a job for everyone. Experience is an asset but not necessary. There will be staff on the ground to direct us.
The cost for the 2025 Mission Trip is $2,150.
The primary language in the Dominican Republic is Spanish. We will have interpreters at each site we visit. It is recommended to download Duolingo app and start learning some key words and phrases.
Fill out an application as it will give us some history and an idea of your skills. You will need a desire to help others as God has commanded us to do and a commitment to help fundraise. Without funds, we won't have any materials to work with. You will also need a valid, up-to-date passport and should also consider vaccinations. Contact us if you require additional information.
You can be a contact person for various tasks, including fundraising. Spread the word, and please be in prayer for the team!
