Lost Childhoods in Tijuana
Children often end up in the system due to extreme poverty, parental migration, domestic violence, or the tragic loss of caregivers to gang violence. The effect of this is devastating for kids, and they lack adult role models and love.
Our Mission
Our mission is to mobilize the North American church to embody the love of Christ to vulnerable children and orphans in Latin America through short-term trips, discipleship formation, and giving to tangible needs of the children.
Is it safe to go help? Yes!
You want to make a difference, but the commitment feels big. Long-term mission trips are a big-time commitment and can be expensive. It's normal to worry about safety or feeling unprepared, especially with the recent violence in Mexico.
Step into purpose with Beyond Borders, our day‑trip mission to Tijuana, Mexico. Through simple acts like face painting, games, shared meals, and heartfelt conversations, you’ll connect deeply with resilient kids and serve with love. From the time that you arrive, you will be safely escorted across the border by our trusted guide and directly to the site of the orphanages, and will be safely escorted back across the border. Experience a safe, soul-fulfilling day and return with a sense of gratitude and joy.

Pastor Joe Brandi & A2F
