Want to Join Church Builders?
Baptist Church Builders of Texas ("Church Builders" for short) is a group of Christians who, by God's leading, go together each summer and build one church building for a needy church somewhere in the United States. (there are also other smaller projects through out the year)
There is no club dues, fees and no person
to tell that you are going. We give you the information on where we are going
and you pray and ask God whether or not you need to join us where He is working.
Each person provides his own transportation, accommodations and some meals. The
kitchen crew provides the noon & evening meals during the 5 days we are there to
work for only $25.00 per person.*
The leadership team makes all the arrangements, provides the information to
interested people, and then God brings together who needs to go. (we always have
"enough.")
Each person working on the "site" will need to come expecting to get blessed.
They need to bring a hammer, a tool pouch, and other tools listed on the web
site-- especially if there are an expert or even above average in a particular
area, like electrical work, plumbing, sheet rocking, or roofing.
We have "Church Builder Meetings" during the year to
fellowship, provide information about the place we are going, and give reports
on where we've been and the progress they are achieving once we leave.
We invite anyone interested in Church Builders to come, as it gives us an
opportunity to "SHOW" you who we are.
Those going don't have to have any special skills, as God is the one actually doing the work, He will just be using your hands. We only have a few "skilled" carpenters who lead us, the rest are school teachers & coaches, retired oil company workers, EMTs, nurses, lawyers, preachers, small business owners, bankers, Indian chiefs (well, I don't know...) welders, mechanics, along with other retired folks and an assortment of other fine individuals.
This is an excellent way to spend your family vacation. It lets you be blessed by giving to someone else, teach your children about missions and get to see places you wouldn't get to otherwise go to.
We also need people to pray for this ministry. Pray for leadership, safety, finances and guidance. Check our website for other needs.
