TOCHI BUDDIES NEEDED!
The Tochimizolco, Mexico medical/dental mission team wants you to get involved! “Tochi Buddies” are members of our Grace community who aren’t physically going ON the mission trip but would like to be part OF the trip. Tochi Buddies provide both financial support and encouragement to the team. You will be paired with a Tochi team member, who will communicate directly with you before, during, and after the trip, providing you with a personal connection and updates on the mission. See below for examples of how your donation can help with specific needs.
To become part of the team, simply fill out the form and drop it, along with your cash or check, into the offering plate, or scan the QR code. You can also donate online through the church website, or Venmo to Lisa-Rohrbaugh (just put Tochi Buddies in the comments.) The 2025 Tochi team warmly thanks you for your support of this very important mission!
