Abriendo Fronteras--Opening Borders Partners

Getting Up Close and Personal

Abriendo Fronteras--Opening Borders organizes trips to the  United States Mexico border at El Paso, Texas and Ciudad Juarez, Mexico.  Our border partners live, work, and know life on the United States Mexico border. They are experts in their fields and know what they are doing. They are there to help you see with your own eyes and hear with your own ears what is happening as two countries meet. A different kind of "mission" trip

We have carefully selected each partner and the experiences they offer so that your border immersion trip will be interesting and meaningful.

During your time in El Paso and Juarez, Mexico, you will spend time with your group doing reflection and processing of what you experienced each day. There will be opportunity to write about your experiences and share with others when you return. 

You may also get the chance to serve meals with and to hungry migrants and friends at a local Lutheran church. 

The week is ripe with new experiences, ideas, perspectives, and stories. 

You will have to decide what to do with what you learn.
