OAK RIDGE NORTH, Texas – A twenty-member team from Oak Ridge Baptist Student Ministries, of Spring, TX, led by Nick Jones, will be returning to Belize with Thirst Missions from July 21-28. Thirst Missions, based in Forest Lake, MN, is the world’s leader in providing short-term mission trips to Belize, Central America. They take care of all the logistics and planning so the group can focus on ministry and relationships.

The team will be serving in the Maskall Baptist Church, in Maskall Village. Maskall Village is in the Belize District of southern Belize. Many of the people speak Creole, although English, the primary language of Belize, is taught in the schools. Most of the income of the community comes from growing sugarcane and farming. It is a poor area with many physical and spiritual needs. The people are hard working, loving and caring, and excited to have a mission team come and work with them again this summer.
