It takes so little to give so much: Malibu Pacific Church's Baja Missions tradition celebrates 30 years
In an ongoing commitment to community service and outreach, Malibu Pacific Church, in partnership with Baja Christian Ministries, has reached a significant milestone: 30 years of building homes and providing essential aid in the outskirts of Tijuana, Mexico," Pastor Andy VomSteeg shared with The Malibu Times. "Over the de-cades, this initiative has seen the construction of two to four homes annually, directly impacting the lives of numerous families across the border."
This year, Malibu Pacific Church continued its tradition by sending a team of 43 dedicated volunteers to construct two new homes in Baja.
"Among the beneficiaries was a local pastor and his family, who received one of the homes, complete with appliances and beds — a gesture that symbolizes the deep connection and support the church aims to foster within these com-munities," VomSteeg said, adding that each home, valued at approximately $15,000, is constructed over a mere two-day period. Further, the homes are fully furnished and ready for immediate occupancy.
