Ankeny Presbyterian Church

Since 2003, Ankeny Presbyterian Church has joined nine other congregations in Central Iowa who have partnerships with small mountainside communities near Berlin, El Salvador as a mission of the Des Moines Presbytery.

This mission partnership has a long-term focus - to develop relationships and understanding between both groups – as well as supporting short-term projects for the benefit of the community. 

 A few of the accomplishments include:

• Purifying water filters for homes
• School supplies
• Fertilizer
• Bean seeds
• Latrines
•  Corozal church building

Join us on the 2012 Mission Trip!  We will be gone April 22-29, 2012.

Anyone can join (up to total of 12 delegation members),

Must be:

• high school age or older
• have valid passport
• Spanish skills not mandatory (translators are used), but simple phrases are helpful

Costs include airfare and approximately $350 for lodging, food, transportation and translator.
