Spring Break Outreach - March 15-19, 2010
King’s Kids El Paso presents the Youth of St. Francis  with an opportunity to make an eternal difference!  Spring Break will be in El Paso, Texas. Due to drug cartel violence and increasing crime in Juarez, we are not holding Spring Break there for the second time in 15 years. We look forward to the situation in Juarez stabilizing so we can return soon, but starting last year we took a fresh approach to Spring Break Outreach. We know the Lord has another plan for 2010 and would like to offer an alternative plan to the groups who look forward to Spring Break in Mexico with us each year.  See www.kkep.org
Contact Ken Hanna for more information: 929-2377
