In December 2025, Arcola Church is sending a volunteer team of youth and adults - affectionately referred to as the "Blockheads" - to Rio Bravo, Mexico, to continue the partnership we've had with this community for over 20 years. We will be building more cafeterias for local schools. Trip dates are December 19-23, 2025, and is open to youth and adults ages 9th grade and up. Earn 50 service hours by participating. Total cost of the trip is $950, which includes a really cool t-shirt, food and lodging at the LARC apartments. 

Scholarships are available to individuals and families who can demonstrate economic hardship.
