March Outreach - Vida Joven
Last updated 3/13/25Throughout March, members of the outreach committee will be available at a table on the patio each Sunday to answer any questions you may have and provide information on how you can get involved.
Supporting Vida Joven: March Outreach at St. Peter’s
At St. Peter’s, we believe in extending love and care beyond our own community. This March, our outreach focus is Vida Joven, a remarkable orphanage in Tijuana that provides a nurturing home for children who have been abandoned, abused, or left to survive on the streets. Vida Joven—meaning “Young Life”—offers not only shelter but also warm meals, education, and the guidance of loving caregivers to help these children grow into adulthood with hope and stability.
Meet Beth Beall
We are honored to welcome Beth Beall, the Executive Director of the Vida Joven Foundation, to St. Peter’s on Saturday, March 22, and Sunday, March 23. She will share inspiring stories about the children of Vida Joven and the vital work being done to support them. We invite you to attend her sermons and discover how we, as a church community, can make a lasting impact in their lives.
Visit Vida Joven
For those who wish to witness the incredible work of Vida Joven firsthand, Beth will be leading a trip across the border on Saturday, March 22. This is a special opportunity to meet the children, experience their community, and offer our support in person. No Spanish is required—caring is an international language! Lunch will be provided, and we will have the chance to share a meal together.
Sweet Support: Mook & Pops Fundraiser
Want to support Vida Joven in a delicious way? Mook & Pops Culinary Delights will be selling their famous banana nut bread at the Thrift Shop on Fridays and Saturdays, as well as between church services on Sundays throughout March. Each loaf is available at a special price of $12, with all proceeds benefiting Vida Joven. Indulge in a tasty treat while contributing to a worthy cause!
Join us this March in embracing the spirit of outreach and compassion. Whether by attending Beth’s sermons, visiting Vida Joven, or simply enjoying a slice of banana nut bread, every effort makes a difference in the lives of these children. Let’s come together to share love, hope, and support for Vida Joven!
If you’re interested in joining the trip to Mexico, please reach out to the outreach committee.
